Love you - Prima Marketing

Hi there and great Wednesday! There's a series of different watercolor mediums going in Prima's blog - yesterday it was about watercolor pencils (link) and today it's about the watercolor sets (link). One of the projects in today's post is by me, this layout I did.

The page is about my two lovely girls. They’ve always on the go and inventing things. In the picture they’re taking a bow after a dance act they did for us. Of course I have pictures about the show itself but I though this “action” shot was the best one to capture the atmosphere. 

I used watercolors in a few ways on this page. The background is done using the paints. First I painted some gold and green to the paper and then stamped some color on top two ways – using a stamp and also some cling film. The end result is lovely grungy, shabby styled effects on the background.

I also colored the embellishments using watercolors – gold for the metal heart, pinks for the flowers, green on top of the Wood Icons and all the mentioned to the wire. As the Icons are really smooth, I added a coat of clear gesso first to have something for the paint to grab on to.

Thank you for your visit! Please visit the Prima blog also as there's a ton of magnificent watercolor ideas there!
