Glitz glitter gel with stenciling watercolor card & video tutorial.

Today, for Technique Time at Unity, I am sharing a card using a mix of techniques.  I added glitz glitter gel and stenciling to a pre-stamped panel and then finished with watercolor.



Sentiment:  Hello.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Here are helpful tips for using glitz glitter gel with stenciling along with watercolor.  To begin, pre-stamp with waterproof ink and trim a card front panel using watercolor paper.  Next, add a layer of glitz glitter gel and stenciling around the stamping on that panel.  I chose to use pixie spray, turquoise glitz glitter gel, a spatula and a stencil pal for the application.  Then, allow the finished stenciling to dry completely.  Once dry, add water by section to the stamping and then dab watercolor into the water sections using a brush.  Next, move the color around where you want.  Then, heat set by section and repeat as needed.  Finally, layer everything and add the sentiment to finish the card.


I made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.
