You will get 13 pencils in the following colours. 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. The colours coordinate perfectly with all your Stampin’ Up! card stock, designer series paper and embellishments. These are high-quality, smooth colour pencils. They are perfect for watercoluoring stamped images. Use them with Aqua Painters, Blender Pens, or alone. They’re also Acid and Lignin free so they’ll not damage your photographs when you use them in your scrapbooking or memory keeping pages.

They are fun to use. Colour the image (don’t use too much) and use your Aqua Painter or Blender Pen to just blend the colour over the image as you want to. To make this card you might not need 13 watercolour pencils but you need at least 5 of them!  Can you see them all & how I used them?

Why You Need 13 Watercolour Pencils smallStep by Step:

First I stamped the image in Archival Black. Then I used the Early Espresso gently adding colour all over the wall section and the floor. Using Old Olive on the green plant, I added Pumpkin Pie to the seats and notice board and some Daffodil Delight to the lantern on the table. I water-coloured those sections of the image and when it was dry I then added some Basic Black to deepen the chairs and the bars to give some great contrast.

The card base is Pumpkin Pie A4 cut in half and folded, matted with Old Olive cut to 14.4 x 10 cm. The size of the Watercolour card is 13.4 x 7. When the water-coloured section was completely dry I embossed the words with Gold Embossing powder. Stamp the words in Versamark Ink, pour on Gold powder and set with a Heat Tool. Half a Lace Doily under the base and some Gold Natural Trim finishes the look.

These pencils are selling out fast – so grab your pack today before they go on back order!

Think how many cards you can make quickly and easily to match lots of different card stock colours! Just change the Pumpkin Pie to Pacific Point, or Real Red, or Rich Razzleberry! Now you know why you need 13 Watercolour Pencils! Don’t you think these will be a great addition to your crafty cupboard? Please get in touch if you need any help, that’s what I’m here for!
