Peerless Watercolors with Kelly Latevola

Hello Crafters! 

It's Kelly here and today we are embracing the season! 

One of the benefits of living in Ohio is hands down that we have four distinct seasons. 
This means when Autumn comes there's so much gorgeous foliage everywhere you can hardly get anywhere on time because you're always just staring at it. 

Or it could be because I have 3 jobs and a 4 year old child. 
Let's blame the beautiful leaves shall we?  


If you look closely at the painted panel you'll notice that the background isn't actually white. 
I'm in love with the Rice Paddies Stencil and I can't stop putting it on everything. 
Because of my obsession I didn't realize that they are actually sold out in the shop. 
I'm Sorry! 
They'll be back soon! 
In the meantime if you would like to try this technique we have a ton of really great stencils in the store that would look amazing too! You can see them all here


Along with the stenciling I did some heat embossing so I could use those beautiful Autumn colors to watercolor with! 
You can watch the card come together in the video below 


Any watercolor medium will work with this technique. I just love those Peerless colors because they are so highly pigmented the colors are very intense. 
You know I love me some bright colors! 


Even though there's brights color everywhere my favorite part is actually the sentiment. 
I hope you find a little bit of kindness in your day today :)

Thanks for visiting!
