Thirty Days of Coloring, Days 5 thru 8...

 

 

 Day 5... First, I embossed this rose image by Stampendous with Versamark and white embossing powder on SU Whisper White cardstock. Then with distress inks and tools (one for each color), I added the color with circular motions using the four inks shown in the picture. When finished, I wiped off the excess ink that may have been on the white embossing, spritzed water and dabbed that off. The two to the right, I did a rainbow effect which you'll see later...

 

Day 6... Using this Penny Black image, I heat embossed it with Versamark and black embossing powder on watercolor paper using my MISTI. Using my ZIG Clean Color brushes, I colored in the images...

Day 7... These four images are a Stampin' Up product that my friend Susan Moll brought on her last visit to my house. I stamped in Versamark and used white embossing powder on watercolor paper. I used my Derwent Inktense pencils on these.  First, laying down the color, then going in with a water brush to "move" the color...

 

 Day 8... turned all that coloring into cards.  YAY! A dozen more for my stash...

 

This is the one I mentioned that was done in rainbow colors. I think it's my favorite of those four. The sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp set called "Like Your Style"...

 

 The sentiment is a wood block from Hero Arts...

 

This one, I nearly destroyed with the black spatter... grrr. All that work and I almost had to circular file it. The sentiment is a single rubber stamp I picked up at a Stamp Show last October and I never wrote down who it was from... my bad!

 

So, a rather productive four days! The next four will be spent driving to Ohio and back and having company for the weekend. That's how it goes you know... ;)
