Good morning today is Anything But a Card Day at Catch the Bug so I created a coaster with
Bugaboo's Flower Teddy. I printed the image on regular paper and then used carbon paper to
transfer the image to the coaster. Then I tried colouring with copic, boy did that NOT work! So I erased the colouring with 99% alcohol and started again with water colouring. That worked much better and then finished it with matte varnish.
Take a look at what the other DT created and then remember to come back tomorrow for a new release!

Hey Dawn! I think your coaster is fabulous! I never would have guessed that an alcohol marker wouldn't work on this surface. I learned something new today! Have a great week!

Hi Joy, I think the copic markers didn't work because the ink wouldn't absorb. The tile is very smooth in some areas and the markers just streaked, it was awful. Because I can regulate how much ink and water to use in watercolouring it was so much easier!
DeleteDawn, that coaster is awesome. Love your coloring. Very creative!!!
