Make It Monday: 158

Back again with another Make It Monday post!  2 weeks in a roll?? Say what???? Ha, ha, ha!

This week challenged us to use various watercolor mediums with our stamps!  I had recently dabbled in watercoloring my backgrounds with a brush, but not my stamps.  So, I ventured out to Michael's Craft Store and picked up a nice starter set of Gelato's!  HOLY COW, these are fun!  I now see I need more colors!  

Well here is my attempt with Gelatos!  
 and a little uncloseness!  :)

It was really fun!  I hope you enjoyed your visit to my blog today!!

  2. You got so much detail...that is amazing.
    Wondering how much water you added to the stamp.
    Love the colors.

    1. I used a misting bottle from about 6-8 inches. When I attempted it the first time (I was about 2-4 inches away), it was a splotchy mess that did not even resemble a feather. This was a lot more subtle in the watercolor but kept the detail in the stamping :) Thanks for your comment!

  3. I love the tones of green in your feather. The bow at the base of the feather is so sweet.

  4. I think this is beautiful- the feather looks so soft and well, "feathery"! : )
