Hi Everyone, we all have stuff in our stash that we forget about. I recently pulled out my Black Elegant writer and used it by colouring directly on the stamp (1.3 Calligraphy nib) then adding water to the image using a brush.
I just touched the ink with the water and allowed it to seep a little, you have to keep washing the brush with clean water as the elegant writer has a lot of colour and black becomes blue green purple and gray depending on how much water and the black ink.
The first card is a Serendipity Winter farm stamp (now sold by Impression Obsession)
My Second card is a Penny Black Bird on a branch. Again I added water carefully and allowed the colour to move. Once it was dry I pulled a little more colour over the white areas. I also cut out the branches so they lay outside the frame.
