Troubleshooting
Paint is bleeding outside the design lines
You are likely using too much water. Blot your brush on a paper towel before picking up more paint.
Colors look too dark or muddy
Ensure you are thoroughly rinsing your brush when switching colors to prevent cross-contamination in the mixing tray.
Paper appears warped
Excessive moisture can cause paper to buckle. Use thinner layers of paint and allow sections to dry partially before adding more.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required; simply open the kit and begin. Set up your workspace with a flat, dry surface and a small cup of water for rinsing your brush between colors. To protect your work area, it is recommended to place a mat or newspaper underneath the painting card, as the ink is designed to be vibrant and may stain porous materials. When not in use, ensure the ink bottles are tightly capped and store the remaining paper sheets in their original packaging to prevent warping or dust accumulation.
