Stamping Tips & Techniques to Try

Are you new to stamping? Looking for techniques and ideas to try? This page is a collection of stamping tips and techniques to give your stamping a boost or help you get started with this creative hobby.

How to watercolor with your Stampin' Up inks:

There are two ways to use your inks to watercolor on your cards.

Watercolor Method 1: Before opening up your ink pad, press the lid of the ink pad into the pad itself. Open up the ink pad and there will be a little mark of ink on the lid which you will drop some water from the Aqua Painter onto to. You will use this as your palette.Watercolor with Stampin Up ink pads

 

Watercolor Method 2: Take your Stampin' Write markers and scribble some ink onto a clean acrylic stamping block. Then use the Aqua Painter to add some water and pick up some ink for watercoloring.Watercolor with Stampin' Write markers
