Mountain Air: Aqua Painter vs Blender Pen with Alcohol and Water

Rachael · May 21, 2020 · Leave a Comment

 

Hi Stampers!

Aquapainter with Alcohol on Shimmer Paper

Do you know the difference between Aqua Painters & Blender Pens?

If not or if you want a few more tips, watch and learn!

SEE VIDEO HERE

You can use WATER or ALCOHOL in your Aqua Painter.

IF you use water though, to be safe make sure to empty it each time you’re finished painting. The alcohol will be fine left inside.

This was done with Water in Aquapainter and also Blender Pens

 

A stamparatus or other stamp positioning tool will come in handy for this if you’re

  1. Making multiple cards
  2. Using watercolor paper which can sometimes be “toothy” and not give a great ink impression the first time
  3. Want to be precise

 

I prefer this Watercolor Paper :

This is also great and reasonable if you’re just getting started:
