Today I have a colouring technique to share with you.
I have used colours from both of the Water Colour Pencils packs to add colour to this card.
I used Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Greenand Melon Mambo to colour the images I stamped using Night of Navy.
Dual-tipped pens filled with specialized solution for easier blending. 3 acid-free, xylene-free pens.
The Blender Pen allowed me to blend the colours to achieve a smoother look.
It is easy to vary the intensity of the colour by applying different more or less pressure while colouring.
I chose to stamp the images in Night of Navy because this is the colour I used for the card base.
When the flowers and leaves were coloured I cut them using the Blossoming Happiness Dies.
The Basic White layer was cut using the die that creates the torn spiral paper look. The die is part of the Blossoming Happiness Dies. I also tore and distressed the lower part of this layer.
The ‘friend’ greeting was stamped on the white layer before I positioned and adhered the flowers and leaves.
The card insert and envelope both have a Night of Navy rose stamped to embellish these areas.
I finished the card by colouring some Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels using the Dark Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend and positioning them on the card front.
It has been quite a long time since I last used my Water Colour Pencils. It was nice to reconnect with them.
Tomorrow I will have some challenge projects to share with you.
Until then, happy stamping.
