Edited 2020: This post has been edited to remove a bunch of outdated information about a monthly kit that isn’t available. The technique is awesome though, and the supply list links to a bunch of dot card options to try!
Two of my artsy craftsy favorites have linked arms for a beautiful kit! There’s a special palette of Daniel Smith paints (in the form of a dot chart) along with Hero Arts stamps, dies, paper, a brush…everything you need in one lovely kit! How perfect!
The kit is pretty fantastic especially for a new watercolorist. It’s an easy way to get a stamp and die set that you can use independently along with card bases and paper – and a brush and paints to try out!
There are a bunch of small 18-color dot cards, and Ellen Hutson carries mine plus this Hero Arts chart:
There are also larger dot cards – 66 and 238 colors!
