Our TGIF Challenge this week is my all time favorite, E V E R … watercolor!!! Watercoloring is my “go to” coloring technique. Maybe it’s because I love water so much (being a So Cal gal and swimmer), but I just love the look, the artistry, everything about watercoloring. So when I saw this challenge, I was in heaven. My card features the Timeless Tropical stamp set and coordinating In… Read More »

So I decided to venture out and use them as a coloring… Read More »
I love discovering new coloring techniques! This weekend, I was playing around with the new Pigment Sprinkles. You can find them on page 179 of the Annual Catalog. They come in a box of six colors, and they are highly concentrated color crystals in powder form. To activate, just add a little water and watch with wonder at what happens!
