I love the tips that Lexi graciously offers to us….you don’t need to wash out your dried pallet. Makes perfectly good, economical sense 🤍🤍🤍. Don’t overthink it…..just play 🤍🤍🤍

Wow, what a wonderful time. Thank you. Loved the Mums and Crysamthmums. Never painted, but I love watercolors. What's in my mind's eye is different from what comes out of my hand. I heard an artist say it was like a muscle you have to keep exercising that muscle to keep it good.
We're so glad to have you here!!❤️

Thank you Pebbie, I'm so glad you loved the techniques!!
So articulate …vivid …detailed tutorial …thsnkyou so much
Will this this technique-work with acrylic or chalk paints
It might. You'd need to water them down quite a bit. Let us know if you try it and how it works!!
Lexi, Mums and Crysamthmums are my favorite. I am not an artist and I absolutely have no statistic visions but with Lexi I feel like "Yes, I can do this!".
We love to hear this Ronda🙌♥️
Learned so much from this! Great tutorial! Thank you! Such a beautiful way to use the stamps.
Glad it was helpful and we can't see what you make!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the tutorial!!
Just fantastic. I was an art major in high school but never used water color but taught oil painting at a craft shop years ago. I am 70yr old now and unable to do fine brush work so this method your showing using the IOD stamps and using washes of color I can do. Thankyou for sharing and just ordered this stamp. Lol I think this on a small scale would be really nice to make cards. Thanks again. God Bless
We're so glad that this method is something that will work for you, Marty! You're going to love this stamp😍 God bless you as well and happy creating❤
So beautiful
So glad you enjoyed it!!

@@IronOrchidDesigns, awhhhh thank you!!!!!!🎩🌹✌😘
What type of water colors do you start with? I have an artists loft, necessities, soft pastels for drawing, illustration & coloring. Will that work? Thank you
What brand watercolor brushes do you use?
I am not able to find the stamps that you used in the catalog
Thanks so much for the tutorial. Just love it . All I had was the IOD poppy stamp, so made do with that. Printed words for the center circle with my Silouette Cameo. Loved the results. Do you have a youtube page-channel? Would love to join.
We have links to Lexi's websites in the description😊 Here is the link to her UA-cam channel ua-cam.com/channels/mZSHX9NeWMtBPz_81KffjA.htmlvideos ❤
Soo enjoyed this and want to give it a try. What brand of paper do you suggest for a beginner to do this project?
Fabulous! Any brand will work as long as it's 'watercolor' paper. You can get it at most craft stores.
Thank you so much for this beautiful tutorial, I really enjoyed it. Your work is absolutely gorgeous. I just accidentally came across your video, I’m so glad I did. It is so relaxing to watch you paint. Love from Felixstowe England xx🥰
We are so glad you found us!!! Welcome!!
❤
Did you make your masks or did they come with the stamp?????
The masks come with the stamps. They are perfectly cut to line up and they're made of plastic, so you can easily wash and reuse.
