Create a beautiful card featuring a mason jar filled with stamped flowers using watercolour ink wash techniques. The design combines a soft blue and pink watercolour background with layered stamped florals and a decorative jar element, creating an artistic and dimensional card. This project uses simple stamping and watercolour techniques to achieve a stunning, professional-looking result.
Spray blue ink onto your craft mat with water to create a watercolour wash. Place your white cardstock onto the wet ink to pick up the colour and create a watercolour effect.
