Watercolor pencil techniques with Spotlight on Nature

 Hello all, today is a card using some techniques I recently learned from Tina Zinck of Canada on how to color with watercolor pencils.  I am taking a class she offered and have already learned a lot and I've barely started.  So much fun and the pencils are really versatile in their different uses.  To see how I've colored my images and how I put the card together, be sure to watch the YouTube replay on my channel.
