Updated Watercolor Swatch – What Have I Done Now?

June 4, 2019

Hey peeps.  Updated watercolor swatch…what have I done now?  Yes I MUST keep my colors organized.  LOL . I thought I would share with you a quick video showing how I updated my watercolor swatches.  The first method really did work for me for years, however I felt I needed to tweak it just a bit. Do you watercolor swatch your paints?  Which brands do you use?

Keeping my space organized is one of the most valuable things I can do for myself.  It keeps me from chasing my own self around the room trying to figure out where I placed or stored an item. I’m not OCD however I am VERY dedicated to keeping a happy space.  When I find disorganization in my space it kills my creativity.  I feel like I’m suffering slowly and to keep that from happening, I stay organized.  An updated watercolor swatch will make all the difference if you don’t understand how much watercolor paints you already have.  For me, if I see what I have I will “try” not to purchase the same colors.  That doesn’t always work because different brands have different shades however at least I would know that I don’t need anymore yellows when I have 30 of them.  LOL

Okay onto the video. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.  

 

Let me know if you keep a color swatch of some sorts?  Do you do it for your inks, markers, pencils, paints?  Let me know in the comments.  Have a great day everyone.  I’ll see you back here soon!

Let's round out this month's mini releases from @a Let's round out this month's mini releases from @altenewllc with a sweet and creamy crepe. The mini bundle stamps this month have me wanting to bake and my mouth and hips said NO MA'AM! Ugh they can be so rude at times. I made my icing to look like my favorite color combo. Red and teal for the win! 

This mini crepe stamp and die bundle is only available today so get it in your cart and check out quick. Look how easy that cake was to bake. 😂 You can check out my Instragam feed for the previous baking inspired mini bundles. I was able to make all these cards with the same layout. Perfect for gifting to a friend in need of birthday cards for family and friends.
