Consejos del programa

• Use watercolour card rather than standard card as it is built for water and gives a better result.
• If you don't have watercolour card, use what you have in your stash; it will still work.
• Leave a halo of watercolour in the centre when using oil pencils over the top to create instant dimension without heavy colouring.
