Watercolor Pencils are coming back!!!!! I can’t wait!!! Several years ago our watercolor pencils were retired and I was really disappointed. I couldn’t be happier that they are making a comeback .
One of the perks of being a demonstrator is that you can order new products a month early! I put my order in today and these pencils were at the top of my list!! I can’t wait to receive them early next week!!!!
I hope you enjoy watching the video showcasing the pencils and seeing some tips and tricks along the way!
I made another card using the stamp set Bella & Friends! It’s a different size than I usually make – it measures 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″. The great thing is that it will still fit in our Medium Envelopes!
When I was growing up we had 5 poodles. We started with a little boy named Brandy and then we got him a playmate, a cute girl who loved my dad, named Tootsie. When Tootsie became pregnant my mom told my sister and I that we wouldn’t be keeping the puppies. Once my dad took a look at them, he was a goner. And so, five dogs (we named the puppies Zippy, Honey and Amber)! They were all so cute and we had such fun with them. I really missed all of them when I went off to college. Little Bella reminds me of all those doggy memories.
Here’s all the details of my card with Bella!
Start off with an 8-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Real Red cardstock. Score at 4-1/4″.
Use a scrap piece of Real Red and die cut a square using the Layering Squares Framelit Dies
Use a scrap piece of Whisper White for the square that you’ll make with the Stitched Shapes Framelits (these are currently on backorder, sorry).
Stamp Bella on the Whisper White square and color her. I used colored pencils (non-Stampin’ Up!) along with my blender pen. Color her collar with a Stampin’ Write marker (I used Real Red).
Stamp your sentiment.
Glue all your layers. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals behind the Real Red square.
Product List- Below are the products I used to make my card. If you click on any of them, you’ll be taken to my Stampin’ Up! online store. If you have any questions about my card today or the products I used, don’t hesitate to contact me!
Today I have a tip for you that I learned from Kristina Werner. If you don’t have a sink in the area where you craft (or even if you do), these little bottles are great.
I fill the blue bottle with water so that it’s easy to reach for while I’m crafting. If my Aqua Painter runs out of water, I can quickly fill it up with the dropper that comes with the bottle and then continue on. If you are anything like me, you get up and go in the other room to get water and then get sidetracked by something else! Has that ever happened to you?
I asked my husband to model adding water to the Aqua Painter just in case you’re asking yourself, what the heck is an Aqua Painter??? It’s a great tool for watercoloring! It has a reservoir for adding water and then you screw on the brush (they come in a set – one with a medium brush tip and one with a large brush tip).
Aqua Painters #103954
The bottles are also great to take with if you’re traveling! They are made of glass though so you do need to be careful with them. I found them on Amazon (here’s the link if you’d like to check them out).
If you’re interested in the Aqua Painters , you can see them hereover at my Stampin’ Up! online store.
