I really like this technique Lexi & can’t wait to try it! I have a large box of these labels just sitting in a drawer. Now I’m glad I kept them! Thanks for the video & inspiration!
I love this! What a great way to get more use out of dies and have fun with watercolors all at the same time! Thanks so much for the challenge!
Great technique, thanks for sharing.
Hugs Erika.
Fun technique!!
gorgeous cards..and great technique!
Thank you. I love this technique. Would love to know what font you used for the word celebrate.
thank you! it’s a die from “good times” – not sure about font!
Love this technique and of course I love the watercolors!
I tried this using a water brush and dye ink…worked pretty well on parts of the die, but tore the water color paper when taking off the removable label mask. Any suggestions on water color paper to use or how to tell if you’ve used too much water?
hi jeanne – maybe hold back on the water a little and wait until it’s really dry to take the stencil off. i used both cansen and tim holtz watercolor paper. on one sample, it looked like the watercolor paper tore at first (i didn’t wait until it dried!), but once it dried i realized it was the label that had torn leaving the ahesive layer behind, and it rubbed right off. i hope that helps!
these cards are so fabulous – can’t wait to create a few of my own 😉
Great technique! I am gonna try this! Thanks for sharing <3
Really great technique! Thank you for sharing it!
very cool, love this!
Arggh, I have repositionaable glue (somewhere) and paper (somewhere else), but I just figured out another solution this morning. Thanks for sharing the technique though! I’m definitely going to try it.
Another great way to expand my dies! Thanks for a great video and a great watercolor technique! Can hardly wait to give it a try.
