I was so excited to see the Watercolor Pencils in the Occasions Catalog. Stampin’ Up! has given us a new coloring option and in 13 of our Stampin’ Up! colors. Whoo hoo! Who doesn’t love that?

So today I’m sharing with you a couple of videos that I did to show you the basics of using Watercolor Pencils. I hope you’ll find them helpful, I’ve done the video in 2 parts to make things a bit easier.

I’m dusting off my old high school art skills for this and it’s been a while so bear with me. I was lucky to have a wonderful arts program at Brown Deer High School back in the day and I took every class I could! From throwing pots, metals and of course painting – so I hope my favorite teacher, Mr Panaro, would be happy I still have my class notebook after all these years.  After all it’s been a few years. LOL!

I’ve also created some PDFs for you so that you can create these water coloring worksheets for yourself as a reference. You’ll find them listed below the videos.
