Serene Dolphins

Morning, Some more Dolphins for you today. Having the open spaces in these stamps makes them so versatile for so many looks and styles. They are so easy to colour or fill to suit your project. For this project I have used some Blue Brusho and a selection of Blue Watercolour paint and some Pebeo drawing gum.

You will Need:

Craftascope A5 Media Dolphin Stamp Set 1

Brusho

Selection of Blue Watercolours

Versafine Grey Ink

Memento Midnight Blue

Brush

Drawing Gum

Water 6 x 6 Watercolour Card

Black Card

Blue Centura Pearl Card

Step 1: Stamp your Dolphins onto the watercolour card and mask with the Drawing gum. Leave to dry thoroughly. Use a fan brush to add some splatters of gum to remove later leaving a little white space. Wash your brush Immediately.

Step 2: Spritz your card with water and sprinkle some Brusho for the sea, you really to want some white space here as well to add some drama and movement.

Step 3: Use a brush to add a little blue to the sky. Leave to dry again. Then remove the drawing gum from the Dolphins.

Step 4: Use your selection of blue watercolours to colour the dolphins. Top Tip: I am quite heavy handed with colour so I mask off some of the dolphins with gum, little area here and there, then remove some for another colour. You can always go over it later with a much lighter blue, if required. Next stamp "Serene' using a dark blue ink pad.

Step 5: Mount your finished piece onto black card (Gutted) leaving a narrow border. Then position onto your base card, here I have used Centura Pearl.
