Hello Friends 
Today it is all all about the Pleasant Pheasants and sponging watercolor. 
I bet this sound strange sponging and watercolor but trust me this is perfect to all that have difficulty with sponging. 
This is another great way to add color onto a card that we use a detail stamps but no time to color the stamp image itself. 

Problem with sponging?  

So many tell me that they have difficulty when it come to sponging a background. I think today technique will help many for a smooth sponging background. I think the difficulty on sponging is we press to hard so we get distinct spot of ink color, so a soft hand is best for sponging. Now for today it doesn’t matter if you have some spot of darker ink the aqua painter will smooth it all.

Step by step 

  • Tape off the side that you wish to keep white. I used painter tape for to mask.
  •  Sponging with Balmy Blue, Old Olive, Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake 
  • Using the aqua painter brush lightly so smooth all the color 
  • let fry remove tap 
  • Stamp your image
