I've only tasted a Starbucks® Unicorn Frappé once; honestly, it was prettier to look at than it tasted (that sour bite in the middle is no joke.).    And, altho I'm not fond of purple, I had to mix a small dash of it into my watercolor work here to really get the background look I was going for.

I used Raspberry Tart Stickles to embellish (Apparently now retired. Why?  Why do you do this to me, Ranger Ink??? You did the same with Fruit Punch, which I will never forgive.  Unless you bring it back.)  I've listed a substitute down in the supplies, but since I don't own that one, I can't guarantee it will look quite as lush as Raspberry Tart does . . . I'm just sayin' . . . 

I'm loving all the watercoloring I see going on this month and totally stoked to be one of the guest artists in Kristina's Simply Watercolor class over at OCC--are you signed up?  She's got so many fun ideas, you'll wanna try them all! Seriously! 

Have a fab day!
