Watercolor effect on acrylic letters with LSG products!

Hello crafty friends!

Today I show you a cool thing to do with acrylic letter (or any acrylic shape)

and the wonderful MAGICALS!

You know that I like it when things are super easy and fast to do,

this ''technique'' is actually super easy! Yeah Haha.

In just 3 - too easy - steps you can have this beautiful page:

First step: 

Apply Gesso all over ONE side of your shape.

Do that for all the shapes that you want to create a nice watercolor effect.

Second step:

With water and the Magicals colors you like,

create a nice watercolor effect by playing with shades*.

*Add more water to have a lighter color or use less water to have a darker hue. 

Can you have something less easy than that haha?!

Look at the nice effect when you turn over your shapes. I really love it!

Here's the little video showing how I make this. You can watch it below or

on the Lindy’s Stamp Gang YouTube Channel

Pastel Watercolor Background with Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays!

Hello crafty friends!

It’s KareenBH with you today and I want to share my first LSG project with you.

I'm going to show you an easy way to create a Pastel Watercolor Background

with Lindy’s sprays using Starburst and Flat Fabio together.

How fun does that sound! 

This is probably my favorite color combo for this summer

( purple, turquoise and white mixed together)!

I created the pastel background by flicking on one color at a time,

then adding a little water and letting it soak into the paper.

Blot with a paper towel and dry with a heat gun between colors,

to create these stunning pale pastel effects!

I love how the multiple colors make my creation magical.

Don't the drips look amazing.
