Water Spritzing

 Good Morning, Stampers!

There’s something magical about autumn crafting—the crisp air, rich colors, and of course, pumpkins! Today I’m featuring Stampin’ Up’s Beautiful Pumpkins stamp set paired with one of my favorite techniques: water-spritzed stamping. This simple trick transforms your stamped images into soft, painterly works of art, perfect for cards, tags, scrapbook pages and seasonal décor.

Water-Spritzed Stamping:

• Ink up your pumpkin stamp with your chosen fall colors.

• Before pressing to paper, lightly spritz the inked stamp with water. A fine mist works best—you want droplets, not puddles.

• Stamp onto watercolor paper or thick cardstock. Watch as the ink blooms and blends, creating a watercolor effect without the brushwork.

Each impression is unique, with soft edges and natural blending that feels like hand-painted art. It’s a wonderful way to add depth and texture to your autumn projects!
