WEEK OF WATERCOLOR! - SUNDAY

The week has come to an end...and so my last posting example for my Wonderful Week of Watercolor!

This has to be one of my favorites.  This again is just a simple loose coloring onto the image with the Watercolor Wonder Crayons (Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango) and then used the blender pen to pull the colors together.  I finished this rose off with a few dew drops by adding crystal effects to the petals.  I think this coloration works so beautifully with our new in color for this catalogue year, Calyspo Coral.  I could not resist adding 3 beautiful pearls as a final embellishment!
Have these last 7 days of wonderful watercoloring intrigued you?  Want to try this technique yourself and become an instant artist?  Tomorrow I will tell you how you can join me in Watercolor Wonder!

Happy Stampin!

WEEK OF WATERCOLOR! - THURSDAY

Can you believe it?  Thursday already!  Here is another beautiful watercolor wonder card for you!  Enjoy!

Stargazer Lilies are one of my favorite flowers!  Here I have used watercolor wonder crayons and a blender pen to create them from the lily line stamp in the fifth avenue floral stamp set.  I used Regal Rose and then a bit of Melon Mambo to create the inside color the stargazer lily is famous for!  I added a bit of Pumpkin Pie to the stamens to finish the flower off. More to come tomorrow!

Happy Stamping!

My Week of Watercolor WONDER!!!

I have finally had some time to play with my Watercolor Wonder Crayons and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM!  They can make anyone look like an artist with such minimal effort. This is my week of Watercolor Wonder, so stay tuned for my postings each day this week.  I am so happy to share my creations with you!

MONDAY

This card I cased from a sample I saw on Split Coast Stampers.  (I am so sorry, I am no longer able to find the card to give credit to the person who created it).  I did change it a bit to use some different colors from our new In Colors, using a Lucky Limeade base and Island Indigo behind the flower windows.  The other colors on the card are So Saffron, Whisper White, and a Baja Breeze Seam Binding Ribbon.  The technique used here is simply coloring in the image loosely with a Pacific Point Watercolor Wonder Crayon and then using a Blender Pen to spread the color around.  Such a very simple technique that yields such beautiful results.

TUESDAY

This is a very simple card I finished in about 10 minutes.  The card base is So Saffron and the other color accents are Old Olive in plain cardstock as well as DSP.  The image was stamped on Whisper White paper with Staz On ink and then Watercolor Wonder Crayons in Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie were spread with the Blender Pen. Fifth Avenue Floral was the stamp set used here.  It has really great line stamp images for watercoloring.  Stay tuned for tomorrow's posting, I can't wait to show you more wonderful watercolor examples!

Happy Stamping!
