Last night I tried to watercolor some more. I had some trouble because some of the colors didn't blend very well. I think I might have used to much water *oops*. I need to keep practicing because I really enjoy it. I think I just need to get some watercolor crayons from Stampin Up instead of using the ink pads. Does anyone have the crayons? Please let me know if its easier to use and if they are worth buying. For this card I used Stampin' Up Real Rust, Certain Celery, Choc Chip, and Whisper White. The adorable stamp image is from Inky Antics and the sentiment is last years Stampin' Ups hostess set. I also used some stickles *smile* I think its my favorite embellishment right now. Finished it off with some ribbon and hardware.

I think you did a great job. The crayons are great!
The crayons are amazing! They are fun to use and the colors blend very easily. I love mine!
Card is fabulous!
And, YES - the watercolour wonder crayons are FANTASTIC!!!
I LOVE MINE - just don't use them enough.....
You are already well on your way to great watercoloring. Love your cards. I think the crayons are great, but I think the best option for SU watercoloring is to use SU's reinkers -- you'll get a more intense color. The crayons, however, are easy -- no mess no fuss!
Absolutely darling, love the stamp and your coloring. I love my crayons, you can blend them with a versamarker and apply clear embossing and it looks like a sticker.
Oh yes! I LOVE watercolor crayons! I'm not much of a "color it in" person, but the crayons make is SO easy! They blend well and make you look like a professional!

I use watercolor pencils and then a small paintbrush- easy on the water!!! it works great!
Prang also makes some great watercolors- you can find them at M's :)
