    @lauragray4052 3 роки тому +3

    I love this stencil there’s so much you can do with it! I’m not that proficient with watercolor and this gives you more control,compared to the clear watercolor stamps that you smoosh watercolors on. I want more control like this stencil gives you. You could also use a dry iron to flatten the paper, I would still use the laminator paper over it or a flour sac kitchen towel. Recently I got the Crafter’s Magic Wand Picker & Poker from Maker Forte. I like it a lot because it has a cover for each end. So you don’t stab your self with the poker it doesn’t hurt that it’s rainbow colored and shiny.

    A gal in a recent retreat group posted a neat water well thing that has a reservoir and a little platform well. It delivers fresh water from the reservoir, holds it into the well platform, you use it until you change colors, then push a button that Flushes the well platform, then you refil the little well with fresh water. It’s neat. C9FBG.

And even though I've started getting the hang of "real" watercolor (alas, only for backgrounds and splatters, I'm definitely not a painter ...) I feel that this is so fast!
