Thanks Mal.
I used a larger piece of tissue paper (about 6×6″) and coloured all of it. I cut it down after adhering to the white base.
The wet tissue wasn’t too hard to handle. You don’t need a lot of water. I actually dipped mine a second time after it was dry and it held together very well. xx

Love this Annette. Did you cut the tissue paper to the correct size before inking it up? Was the wet tissue paper hard to handle, i.e., when getting it out of the inked water? XX Mal
