I was instantly captivated by the idea. Watercolor powders that can be used in all sorts of cool ways? Sign me up!

Following their cue, I placed a stencil down on a tag, spritzed everything thoroughly with water, and lifted the stencil carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI then “puffed” the powder onto the tag.

Because the Color Bursts are such a fine powder, they can spread very easily.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIf you’re concerned with breathing in any powder, consider wearing a face mask.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhen using your stencils, be sure they are clean. Any residual spray ink will be activated when you spray water on it.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDon’t squeeze the bottle too hard.
