Hello crafty friends! Katelyn here with a preliminary video sharing you tips and tricks to use Crayola markers for watercoloring! Now, I'll tell you right now that this video had a few hiccups during filming, but there's a lot of great information in there! So, let's dive in to some tips and tricks! There's a fun technique that is on trend currently that involves using Crayola markers. I know that almost everyone has had Crayola markers in their house at some point. Now is the time to dig them out! In my video this month, I am sharing some general examples and ideas on how to use the markers to color in images. I also share some tips on some great techniques to use them for and what not to do. I hope you enjoy! Overall, these markers are a great pigment source. I do recommend using a waterbrush with them, but you could definitely use a regular brush and water. The pigments are relatively easy to move. I highly recommend using watercolor paper because all o...

Hello everyone! Welcome back to SBC! I'm Katelyn and I've got a new tutorial to share with you! I started doing this with some of my stamp sets recently and after having enough practice I decided to share with you this easy technique to extend the mileage on your stamps. I have two stamps here that I purchased off of Etsy. They are not necessarily intended to go together, but since the illustration style was the same, I figured I would make a full scene out of them. Some other supplies you will need for this project include stamps that "go" together, a fine tip black pen (or whatever color you're stamping in), a watercolor set, and a fine tip brush. Let's dive in to more details about the process. Essentially, what we're doing is taking two stamps and filling in the gaps. The video gives a better representation of how this occurs, but I basically mimic what is around the already stamped image. The grass section tends to be the easiest since it is es...

Hey kids!  I'm sharing my July challenge project today.  This month the theme is watercolor.  You can create a watercolor background, use watercolor techniques to color an image, or anything you'd like to create using a watercolor effect.  Our sponsor for July is DeeDee Digis .  I created the watercolor background.  It was pretty fun to play with the mists and water :-)  I found that cardstock wrinkled up pretty good.  Even tried a thicker cardstock -nope.  So, if you have watercolor paper I think that is your best bet.  I used Gloss paper by Ranger :-)  Love the effect I ended up with!! Recipe: Ranger Gloss paper Glimmer Mists: lemon Zest, Iridescent Gold, Candy Apple Red DeeDee Digis - Ladybug Hugs red wire Glossy Accents - ladybug spots Black bling pop dots Thanks for stopping by today :-)  Come and play along with this fun challenge!  Link up is here .  Cindy - In Love with PAP...
