Color a candy store in watercolor pencil

November 16, 2020 by Sandy Allnock 5 Comments [featured_image}

Mondays might not be the most wonderful day of the week, but CANDY SEASON is the most wonderful time of the year! ha!

Yes I’m a candyholic, much to my dentist’s dismay. And my scale’s! But when I see a stamp set with candy, I just gotta color it….this is my first attempt on this one and I have more ideas to come so watch social media to see what else I come up with!

I just had to make a candy store – because I love me a good local candystore! When we used to be able to travel, I always looked for an indy sweet shop in every town. My waistline probably appreciates that that’s no longer going on – ha!

Watch on YouTube

The scene portions for this card are quite simple – create a countertop with a side edge and area underneath, then a grid for windows and a bit of light blue sky showing through. Leave a little white for the snow to collect at the bottom of each pane!

My card also uses last year’s Retro sentiment set – nice crisp text with beautiful stacking and swirls!

Leave a comment and tell me YOUR favorite Christmas candy!

Supracolor pencils

Ask Santa for some new art supplies for Christmas – Supracolors are an excellent choice for an awesome treat! There’s also a class you can take to learn how to use them – Watercolor Pencil Jumpstart – but don’t get it yet. Wait til Black Friday when there’s a good sale. I know, I know, shooting myself in the foot, but I want you to get a deal!

    This is so cute Sandy. I’m a huge candy fan too … in Australia we say ‘lollies’

    This is absolutely adorable. I just got a gift card for my birthday and this video helped me decide I needed new watercolor pencils…not that I needed much convincing. My favorite “candy” is peppermint chocolate covered marshmallows

    Candy is the one thing I can actually resist, but put out some cookies and I am all over them. I have been coveting a set of the Supracolors since I love my Luminance, but not sure Santa would agree I NEED any more supplies! LOL

    Such a SWEET card! I’d forgotten that I have watercolor pencils – well, just 12… but as you pointed out, they’d be great for getting into tiny places. And now I see how to mix colors, so I’ll have to dust them off and give ’em a try! I’ve been making tags, for some reason… Thanks for the “eye candy”!
