Watercolored Backgrounds

Ann's Crafter's Inks are perfect for this technique because of their special formulation. I have a very easy to follow tutorial (here) so you can try it out too!


Make sure you visit Ann Butler's Designs blog to see the step by step tutorial and the list of supplies used to make these watercolored backgrounds. These bright spring colors and this technique are perfect for your upcoming spring projects!
