Learn to Watercolor Using Walnut Inks

Posted on by

By Katy Ingram

Hello Friends! Katy here with my latest video! In todays video I create a very simple Spring card. I love the look of watercolors and since I have been with Imagine for a few years as an Artist in Residence, I am trying to explore some of the other products they have available and that I can use similarly to my inks. So I grabbed the Walnut Inks I have and a small paintbrush and got to work coloring my stamps. Fear not if you yourself do not have these magical water-based inks, you can use your ink pads with a smoosh and a bit of water or actual watercolor pans or liquid watercolors or any other liquid ink you may have lying around. Video has all the details. Thanks for watching.

Hello Friends! Katy here with my latest video! In todays video I use some Cherry Blosom Walnut Ink to create a simple background for an Easter egg die cut I have in my stash. I kept the background simple and made an A1 size card, also known as an RSVP card size. I love that I can use the Walnut Inks like watercolors to create simple backgrounds.  Video has all the details. Thanks for watching.

Hello friends, Katy here and in today’s video tutorial, I’m going to show you how to add some gilding to your stamped images as well as how to add some texture to your silhouette stamps using a swiping technique. I will be using Memento inks and Brilliance Galaxy Gold for the gilding. This technique is so quick and I think you will like the end result. I created a thank you card for today, but as always you could put any sentiment you like on this design.
