Hello crafters! It's Smitha again here and today I am going to show you how I made this colorful print.
I started by printing this quote using a word document onto a white piece of cardstock. I used a really light grey color for the word "rainbow" here.
Next, I used the Gelatos® Double Scoop® to color over the word "rainbow". I stated with this purple color and using a really fine brush that I had dipped in water, I carefully picked up some gelato pigment onto my brush and applied onto the letter.
I continued in the rainbow colors to fill out the letters. You can add a little or a lot of water depending on how saturated you want your colors to be.
A few of these color have a beautiful shine which look amazing in real life!
Once all of your letters have been colored, enjoy this print on your wall. It is bound to cheer you up on a cloudy day!
WOW - FABULOUS print Smitha!!!
LOVE the sentiment and LOVE your coloring - you sure have a steady hand!!!
THANK YOU for sharing your tutorial and RAINBOW OF AWESOMENESS :)
