Awesome Water Paint Distress Technique

July 3, 2024 Leave a Comment

Hi Friends!

In my latest video, I demonstrated the “Watercolor Distress Technique” (also known as the “Water Paint Distress”). During that video, I showcased one of the cards I had made earlier that day. I mentioned that I had filmed the entire process and, if there was interest, I would be happy to share it.

I absolutely LOVE the colors, and the added shimmer of the gold paint is truly perfection.

Well, as requested, I’ve uploaded the video! Now you can see step-by-step how I created this beautiful card:


Lightwish 88-color watercolor palette:

I used the Lightwish paint set on today’s project, which includes 88 gorgeous colors, including metallics like the gold I used on my cards. 💥💕You can purchase this paint set through my Amazon store here: Amazon US: https://amzn.to/4cKOXU3 (sorry, these paints aren’t available on the Amazon.ca site).

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right?
