Easy No-Line Watercolor + 30 Day Coloring Challenge Blog Hop!
Hello to all our creative, coloring friends! It’s Nina-Marie here with you today, as I am going to be sharing some easy, no-line watercolor inspiration with you. I’ll be featuring some of our Simon exclusive sets, including the ever popular, Even More Spring Flowers stamp set!
Today’s inspiration is also part of Kathy Racoosin’s 30 Day Coloring Challenge blog hop. But this isn’t just any blog hop… this is celebrating her 10th CHALLENGE! TEN! Can you believe that? We are SO excited for Kathy, and love how she encourages all of us to color and relax, even if it is only for just a short amount of time. WAY TO GO KATHY!
Here’s a look at the card I have colored and created for the blog hop! While this card appears extremely detailed, and even perhaps a bit challenging, I’m here to tell you that it is really quite easy! If you watch the video below, I’ll walk you through the steps and show you that YOU can do this too.
All of the flowers in my scene are from our Simon exclusives, More Spring Flowers and Even More Spring Flowers. I stamped each one with colored inks that coordinate with the watercolor shades I planned on using. Speaking of watercolors, I used Prima’s watercolor confections. However, you can use whatever watercolors you would like for this technique.
I’ve needed thank you cards lately, so I’m adding more to my stash by using our Simon exclusive, Big Thanks word die, which is paired with a supporting sentiment from My Favorite Things’ Grateful for You stamp set. I cut the thanks word from Tonic Studios mirror cardstock.
Please be sure to watch the video to see how creating a card like this can actually be rather simple! And keep on reading for more details on this fantastic, 30 Day Coloring Challenge blog hop!

Hello Nina-Marie…..I’ve been fiddling/playing/practicing with watercolour for a long time. I’ve seen some ok videos and I’ve seen some absolutely fabulous videos…..and now I’ve seen the best video!!! I’ve never seen the basic concept of watercolouring explained so well. Your no-line tips were amazing and your final touches were awesome. What a beautiful piece of work you’ve created. Thanks so very much for sharing.
