2. Spray
the embossed watercolor paper with Eucalyptus, Terra Cotta, and Java Walnut
Inks. Don’t go too heavy with the coverage. You want to be able to see the
different colors. Rub the paper with a paper towel while the sprays are still
wet to slightly blend the colors and remove the spray from the embossed areas.

4. Once the ink is dried, go over the
sentiment with Original Goosebumps with the dauber top to give the piece some
sheen and texture. I gave it 2 coats.
