Watercolour effect - Mini Tutorial

[angelize]

I have come up with a neat little mini tutorial on how to create a watercolour effect. The tutorial makes use of the same Filter Forge Free distortions filter Pack that Gary Bouton used in this months Tips and Tricks tutorial The attached .xar file contains the tutorial and as an added bonus a 600px seamless tiling paper texture!

So I've given you the how to and an endless supply of virtual paper, you are welcome to post your watercolour creations in this thread.

Thanks for the tute, Frances, easy to understand and simple to put into effect. It's realistic and works very well.
Thanks for the free texture, too.

Thank you for the tutorials Frances. Here are 2 variations on a theme, one based on this tutorial the other on the stained glass one.
