This is using the Precious Peony stamp and die collection. Be sure to stamp the image with a permanent (NOT dye-based!) black ink; I used Obsidian Black. Then, just use the marker to apply color along the stamped edges. I used Citrus Burst and Mountain Mist, then splattered the Jet Black in the background. The full palette looks like this:
Come see this technique plus others—just pop over to the Altenew You Tube channel to watch the free session featuring these Watercolor Brush Markers.
