Prima Watercolor Confections: My New Obsession!

Welcome to the cafe!

Today I am showcasing these lovely Prima Watercolor Confections. I recently ordered these from Joann's online for a great price (they were on sale for about $15 each, and normally sell for $25-$30). These pan watercolors are so sweet and totally portable.

Each tin is about the size of an Altoid tin and comes with twelve pan watercolors, a sample chart, and two palette areas for mixing and blending colors.

After unwrapping each pan, you can place it inside the tin, where it fits snugly into a compartment. And good news...each pan is labeled with its corresponding color, and yes, you can reorder individual colors as needed!

I ordered Tropicals, Decadent Pies, and Classics. I think these will be so fun to take on the road this summer!

The pigmentation of the color is really nice! A good quality paint, for sure. Now I need to get some better brushes. I played around with the paints, and I can see where good brushes will make all the difference.

I had received this nice sample of a new journaling bible from Concordia Publishing House last week. This 40 page preview gives a nice idea of what the full bible will look like, complete with sample pages to color.

I tried my hand at painting with the Prima pans, and it was really nice. I'm tempted to order this bible now!

It has over 350 margin Scripture illustrations, along with ten full page illustrations. The spine also lays flat, and the ESV bible comes in a 9.55 type size, which is nice for reading.

If you order before June 4th, you can get it at 25% off, too!

I enjoy my current bible journal, but I can see where having some illustrations all set to color would be nice, too. It might free my mind up to concentrate on the Word and maybe not so much the artistic process.

As Constance Denninger wrote in the introduction to this bible "The challenge is for this to be a 'heart process' rather than an 'art process'". That is so true!

Blessings on your Friday, cafe friend!
