In today’s tutorial, Tracey shares a quick and effective technique for creating a soft, dappled background using a blend of Elements and Dinkles inks applied directly onto a Gel Press.
With a simple print onto DL-sized Hot-Pressed Watercolour Card, she sets the stage for a magical woodland scene.
The enchanting backdrop frames a cosy homestead, crafted using stamps from Lavinia’s All Things Magical Collection, beautifully paired with some timeless favourites. Final touches from Kuretake Clean Colour and Posca pens add definition and charm, while a hint of Stickles Golden Rod glitter brings just the right amount of sparkle.
