Happy New Year! Watercoloring technique with pencils & white pencil








 
Hope you had a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year too!  
As a Stampin' Up demonstrator, we have access to some beautiful tutorials by other demonstrators -- here is one that I wanted to share with you that used the watercolor pencils and the white watercolor pencil.  This beautiful Magnolia bloom was done by Maike Beimler who is on the Artisan team. 
She used the Watercolor Pencils set #141709  $16 (13 pencils includes whisper white)  High-quality, smooth color pencils. Perfect for watercoloring stamped images. Use with Aqua Painters, Blender Pens, or alone. * 13 pencils in Stampin’ Up! colors: Basic Black, Basic Gray, Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Melon Mambo, Old Olive, Pacific Point, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White * Acid free * Lignin free.  These can be purchased in my online store: 


There are many videos on Youtube that show different ways these watercolor pencils can be used, but I  thought this one was unique so wanted to share it with you. It used the white watercoloring pencil:


 

    
  

You can also see this on her Instagram page at
https://www.instagram.com/p/B55hBCfhSof/ but it can also be seen on the Stampin’ Up Facebook page.

In addition to the watercolor pencils that you can buy on my online store, you can also get the Magnolia bloom stamp set:
