(2014 c53) Unity Stamping on Tissue Technique

Today I first painted the background onto watercolor paper with Artist Loft Pearlescent watercolors found at Michaels . Using Versamark ink I stamped the bird  and flowers both from Dream To Be and sentiment from KOTM June 2014 “In Love With Love” on tissue paper (the kind you put into gift bags). Then I heat embossed with embossing powders. Next I colored inside the embossed lines on the back side of images with Sharpie pens.  Look at photo below to see how I carefully painted white gesso on the back of each little flower and the bird & leaves to prevent the background colors from showing through the images after adhearing to the background.  As seen in the last picture I adhered with Matte Medium by Claudine Helmuth.
