I’ve combined my two loves today–Watercolor and Expressions VinylAnd Expressions has NEW vinyl–transparent glitter vinyl! (head here to see the fun colors!) And they are even more glittery and sparkly in real life!
Since they are transparent I thought they would be perfectly paired with watercolors! I painted some flowers….
I have THIS watercolor set and This watercolor paper (afflink)
Then cut out some vinyl~ (check out the glitterly goodness! This is the magenta color! Weed away all the parts of the vinyl that aren’t apart of the design.I then use a weeding tool to get into all the nooks and crannies…(middle of the o, a, p)
Take your transfer tape (okay…if you don’t know what transfer tape is you are really missing out! It makes it so you can move whole designs in one kabang. I have this huge roll  use it ALLLLL the time and It is still so huge! Seriously. I have had it for a year~ Lay it over your project and rub with an application tool.
Peel up the transfer tape with the words attached and then place on your watercolor where you want it.
Rub it and then peel up!
You are left with perfectly placed letters! I also made a fun rainbow with with two different colors (dark gray and holographic)
I just design it as usual and then pull off the part of the design you want cut in another color!
HERE is a great tutorial on how to do lots of colors!Love how it turned out!
Head over to Expressions and get yourself some transparent glitter vinyl!

I Love this idea. However I don’t paint. Have you thought of putting out the print of your water colors and we can add our own Vinyl graphic? If you do I want a copy. Beautiful.
