INFORMATION ON DOING THE WATERCOLOR TECHNIQUE WITH CAMEO ACRYLIC FABRIC PAINT

So you will achieve great results, do not dilute with more water than you need.
Generally, two parts paint and one part water is a good goal.  Do not thin to
more than a 50-50 ratio, if you can help it.  Use a lighter color instead of
thinning more or use an acrylic extender to achieve more of a watercolor
without changing the consistency of the paint.  And you can always blend in
some white or a lighter color, of course.

You can mix the paint in a jar or bowl.  Use cool or room temperature water
and mix well.  Do not store diluted paint that is left over.  It is safe to
pour it down a drain.  It is not toxic or harmful in any way.  Diluted paint
that is left in a container will settle and separate eventually and that can
make the container difficult to clean, so mix about what you think you will
need and dump the remaining out and rinse out your container thereafter.

With #C452 Blotter Pads in place under the fabric layer, you can apply the
paint or paint mixture with a sponge brush or a regular soft bristle brush.
You can even use a piece of sea sponge, cotton ball, or other item to dab the
mixture on also.  Practice using any of these before committing paint to your
project piece to make sure you get the results you want.

Work from the center of an area and out towards the edges.  Do not wet the
fabric more than needed to saturate it.  Watch how the watercolor travels on
your fabric before getting too close to the edges.  

And watch that you do not over-saturate the blotter pad(s) because that could
cause bleeding to outside of the area desired.  Note: after you are done, the
Blotter Pads can be allowed to dry and used repeatedly.

To soften edges, use a brush or sponge that is damp with water only and feather
out the edges.  Do a small area at a time and dampen applicator as needed.  Work
fast enough that all edges will still be wet and not had time to dry.  You may
need more blotter under the edges or protection for  your table or counter
surface.  Keep a paper towel or two handy to hand blot excess if needed.

It is a very fast technique and much easier than it sounds from reading this.
I am sure you will enjoy the watercolor painting and the results of it.
Watercolor benefits from drying naturally (especially around the edges), however,
a common handheld blow dryer can be used to speed drying, if needed.
