Painted Poppies - Monet Watercolor Technique

Painted Poppies | Monet Watercolor Technique

Hello my stamping friends.

I have a different watercolor technique to share with you today.  I picked this one up years ago at a stamp retreat, and even though I don’t use it often, it really is a neat technique.

You will be using sponge daubers, watercolor pencils, and stazon ink. Watch the full  Show & Tell Demonstration to see it all come together.
