Learn how to create watercolor backgrounds with Pigment Powders. This video tutorial shows you a few troubleshooting tips for getting the exact look you are going for.
*This video was originally filmed for Happy Little Stampers, which has since sadly closed. Use your favorite stamp set - preferably a lined image stamp to help trap some of that colored goodness.
** Supplies are listed below & on my Blog - since the stamp set is no longer available, I've added one that would work great below.
