Life seems to have been busier than usual lately here, so hope you'll forgive me for caseing the technique but the layout is definitely "me". Auda uses only a blender pen and Watercolour Paper. My pen must be a bit dry because I was unable to get the same coverage using just the ink from the stamped image. I used the blender pen but also used some additiona...
