Our Artful Adventure today takes us back to the land of watercolor techniques as we discover a couple of ways to use watercolor pencils.  It can be nice to have a few products that are easy to take with you for any number of reasons!  You may joining friends for some special arts and crafts time; or you may like to have something handy to take on a trip.  No matter what the reason, watercolor pencils are another great product to be able to take along. They don’t take much room and are not messy!

Today we’ll look at using watercolor pencils:

  • on a wet surface
  • with a water brush
  • with a blender pen

Be sure to use waterproof ink for stamping your image.  If you’ll be using a water brush, stamp on watercolor paper.  You can use the Whisper White cardstock for the blender pen technique; although it is on watercolor paper in the video.  NOTE:  The Hydrangea stamp is part of a set only available until 3/21/13.  Grab it if you like it!
