Blog Hop Announcement
I am super excited for today’s blog post. It’s been eight months since I put on the last blog hop and I’ve been waiting for just the right time to bring a new one. These sorts of big events take quite a bit of planning on my end and with my up and down health, I had to postpone them for a bit. Well, the wait is over and I’m so pleased to announce the third big blog hop that I’m hosting that YOU can be part of!
As you probably have noticed, watercolors are super trendy in the paper craft world and I thought it would be fun to see a watercolor theme. Now I personally am a newbie when it comes to watercolors, so I’ll be bringing along some fabulous special guests that will bring some amazing inspiration. Plus, at the end of this post, I’ll have several links to watercolor tutorial videos from my friends!
Date: The blog hop will start on Friday, June 5, 2015 at 6AM, PST and will run until Monday, June 8, 2015 at 11:55 PM, PST.
Where: It’s taking place HERE on the Pretty Pink Posh blog. I will have a link-up widget where you can link up your project(s) and then hop along and see what others have created.
Who: I want EVERYONE to be involved. Whether you’re a watercolor newbie or extraordinaire, I would love for you to join the fun. It’s up to you how much watercolor you would like to feature!
Now it wouldn’t be a fabulous blog hop without sponsors, right? I am so very grateful for my wonderful sponsors who not only are sponsoring prizes, but some of them will even have watercolor inspiration to share the day before the big hop!
That’s not all…..I have six coupons just for my readers and the participants of the upcoming blog hop. How about a little shopping before you start to plan on your blog hop project(s)? You can stock up on watercolors, stamps, dies, embellishments and more!

How exciting!!! I’m also a newbie to water coloring so this is a fantastic opportunity to check out techniques and color mixing. I’ve been thinking about getting the Kuretake Gansai Tambi set but would love to see other people’s preferences. The coupons are definitely icing on the cake! Looking forward to it… already in my calendar. Have a great weekend, Pauline!
Woohoo! Looking forward to the blog hop, & being able to participate! Hope you’re doing well, Paulina, and have a wonderful day! ~ Andrea
So wonderful. I can’t wait! I am just getting started with everything, so I love watching all the videos and learning how to do things. Thank you so much for sharing.
Love learning more about water coloring! Thanks!
Well, I’m feeling the excitement Paulina! I hope your health does not relapse from all the extra activity ♥ You are so sweet to put this together!
Thanks for all of the hard work you put into these wonderfully fun hops.
Please take cars of yourself. That is the most important thing.
Thanks to all the generous sponsors and their great discounts.
I will definitely be here to play along.
Crafty hugs,

Sounds wonderful Paulina!
Thank you!! This sounds awesome. And because of your FB post, I ordered the Zig Clean pens on Amazon today. Shhhh. Don’t tell my husband!!
Great coupons so nice of everyone! Can’t wait to hop along!!
Oh BOY! I Love your products and this will be on super HOP!!!
Awesome hop topic…love watercolours and am excited about joining you on the 5th!
Can’t wait! Myself, and MarkerPop!, will both be joining in!
Love the watercoloring look, I have to try this out soon! Very exciting!
thanks for the coupons – used them already!
Excited for this hop! I’m a watercolor newbie too. I watched the amazing videos. I need to just jump in! Thank you for getting so many discount codes for us!
This will be my first HOP looking forward to it!
Paulina, I’m confused is there a coupon code for w plus 9. Thanks!
No, there isn’t a WPlus9 coupon… they are just a sponsor (and will be providing a prize for the blog hop).
QUESTION: Are we allowed to use things that create watercolor effects (like Gelatos or Distress Inks?)
YES! Watercolor effects are totally welcome!
Sounds like fun!
yeah can hardly wait woo too!!!!! :-)
I love watercolors!!!! I may even get a card onto this hop….yippeee!!!
WOW! I love watercolors but I’m a newbie. Actually, clueless would be a more apt description. I’m looking forward to some awesome inspiration and learning some great techniques. Thank you
Thanks for the codes. Love all the creativity!
