Packed with brilliant ideas for embellishing pages, this book shows how to produce stylish designs with simple watercolour techniques. You do not need to be an artist. Easy-to-follow photographs show how to create colour and texture by sponging, spattering, scraping, and using dry brush and resist methods. Christmas photographs can be embellished with snow effects, holiday snaps with wet-in-wet washes, and there's much more, with ideas for birthdays, school days, past times, dressing up days and tottering toddlers. Polly Pinder's book is delightful, fun and great for scrapbookers looking for something different.
