This is my example for the first technique of the Compendium Challenge.
I used Dusty Concord, Faded Denim, Pine Needles and Chipped Sapphire inks. The stamp came from Impression Obsession and the saying came from StampScapes. I also
used Faded Denim and Picket Fence Stickles to create a bubble/current effect around the edges. Really hard to photgraph well.
I found this to be a tad tricky to get the effect I wanted; ink had to be thick, but not to dark, and stamp had to be left for a moment or two...too quick and no noticable effect; too long, and a wet blob. I had tried with different papers, and the papers couldn't be too absorbent. I went with the tag for the most notable effect.
Kim, your waterstamping looks phenomenal! You really perfected the technique, and got such a clear, crisp image. Gorgeous tag all the way around, and I'm so happy you joined the Challenge!
