Altenew Watercolor 36 Pan Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s Watercolor 36 Pan Set Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing Altenew’s Watercolor 36 Pan Set!  If you arrived here from the talented Nicole Picadura blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

This beautiful set of 36 vibrant watercolor half-pans coordinates perfectly with our line of ink. They are intensely pigmented, fade minimally when drying, and some colors have lovely granulating effects. They are stored in a convenient plastic case, designed with space for your brush (included) and a palette in the lid for mixing. Some of the case lids snap off upon opening and can easily snap back on after you are finished creating so you can store your mixed paints with the rest of the pan colors.

The set contains

  • 36 Artist Grade Watercolor Half-Pans

  • Plastic Case

  • Water Brush

Take a look at my Watercolor Traveler’s Notebook:

Altenew Watercolor Pan

I recently took a vacation with my daughter to Cuba and it was amazing. The country is a must see. Although the infrastructure is on the decline, you can still see the beauty in the country. We had a blast and learned a lot.

I used the watercolor pan to add color to my pages that would match the colors in the photos.

I love how the watercolors mix and move across the paper. The interesting thing is, I used linen paper and it did well with the watercolors.  I was surprised. The colors are vibrant and smooth.

Let’s take a look inside:

The right photo is of the port of Havana. So pretty!

Both photos were taken from the sky- Hello Havana!

I used different color watercolors on all of these pages. Perfect way to showcase all of the photos.

  3. Absolutely love this! A watercolour set that is compact, easy to carry around, that co-ordinates with all my Altenew Inks. Love that the pans can be taken out so that individual colours can be replaced that are used more often. What a clever way to enhance your beautiful photo journal album. Love it!

  4. Perfect timing. Want to put together an album for my sister’s birthday.. Had no idea’s and wouldn’t of thought to do this. Thanks for the beautiful inspiration.

  5. Very interesting use of the watercolor set in your travel journal…..I do not travel much any longer…so I am never working in a journal…but I myself, can see a use for this set in my scrapbooking…..and my card making…thank you so much for sharing your inspiration…

  6. I know it’s supposed to be about the watercolors, but I love your journal! I always struggle with how to capture the moments that are important or even a pretty view – I love the simplicity of the photo on top of the watercolor background with a small caption and it makes me feel like I can do it, too! Thank you for sharing! Can you tell me what notebook that is?
