No-Line Watercoloring with Distress Inks (Critter Costume Party)
Happy Wednesday, all! Today I have a watercoloring card and video for you featuring no-line coloring. I love the look of no-line coloring–it reminds me of children’s book illustrations. :)
To start the card, I stamped the images from the Critter Costume Party stamp set in Antique Linen Distress Ink and then watercolored them with various mini Distress Inks.
I also used the Happy Halloween stamp from Autumn Greetings and some spider stamps from the Ghostly Greetings stamp set to finish the scene.
I hope you enjoy the video! :)

Just beautiful. I’ve tried no line but my eyes aren’t what they used to be :)
I love no line coloring, looks great and really makes you feel like an artist
So very cute!
Wow, Kristina! I thought the dog and his hat were impressive BEFORE you started adding all the shading and afterward…I can’t believe it, but you got it to look even MORE amazing! I’m so curious how much water you used with the Distress Inks, I’m thinking it was on the dry side–but no idea for sure? Thanks for sharing, I’m new to water coloring and totally geeking out about this scene!
Hmm… Not particularly dry. Just not so wet it would flood those small areas.
Amazing no line watercoloring. I love the look of this technique and wish I was better at it. Super cute card.
Love the coloring! This card is Boo-tiful!
Wow, fabulous card! I love everything about it.
