Trying to create what I see in my mind--Direct to Rubber

I really like this stamp. I thought. In my mind, I can see what I'd like it to look like, but after stamping it seven times, I didn't even come close. Sigh.

The stamp is Landscape Scroll by PSX, K2250.

On the first card, I used Stampin' Up! cardstock, Hot off the Press bronze glimmer paper and ivory vellum, and Strathmore Parchment Paper. I used the vellum to mute what I'd done with my watercolors.

I painted directly on the stamp with Tombow Markers, sprayed the stamp with water. The first time I used too much water, and the colors ran too much although I came to kind of like that one as time went by. The second time I used a very fine mist. After the second one, I tried to use a blender to make it look more like a watercolor, but that didn't help.

The second card has Stampin' Up! cardstock (ivory and teal), Bazzill cardstock (green), and Chiyogami Flowering Vine paper by Paper Mojo. I stamped the image with Versamark and clear embossed with Clear, Ultra Detail EP.

TFL.
