Hi there! I'm so excited to be joining along with the PTI October create along with us release week challenge. This challenge allows you to select something that the amazing team has created during the release that inspired you, and create your own version.

Noble...A Prima DT project 20

Hi there! Today on the Prima blog we're having a little Color Fun! We were presented with an assortment of color palettes which to choose from to create a project. I opted for the pretty pastel color palette shown below:

A variety of vibrant Watercolor Pencils were used to color Jing, the stamped flowers as well as the background.

Lots of texture was added using various stencils along with Heavy White Gesso:

A Trio of Prima Watercolor Cards 30

Hi there! It's my turn to share a few projects on the Prima blog featuring their fantastic Watercolor Pencils. Please be sure to visit the Prima blog to see what the rest of the talented DT has created.

I created a trio of greeting cards featuring a combination of beautiful Paintable Secret Garden cards with pretty papers and embellishments from the Royal Menagerie collection.

I colored each of the images using a variety of watercolor pencils from the Scenic Route and Earth Tones set. I love how easy it is to customize the gorgeous images.

For additional interest, I distressed all the edges of the cards and card front, applied Dry Sand Chalk Edger then randomly stamped the Desert Floor Cling stamp to the background.
