Make it Monday...

Welcome to this weeks Papertrey Ink Make it Monday!  I hope you will stop over to Nichole's blog and play along.

I made a card this last week using the Fresh Floral Wrap Ups set and had many comments and emails about how I colored the flowers.  I have a couple photos here and the video on how I used Colored Pencils and Gamsol to add in some shading.

I hope this help you dust off your colored pencils and OMS like I did or maybe it is even a new technique for you to try.  Pull out any floral stamp set and give it a shot.  If you don't have any OMS, just pull out the colored pencils and do some blending.  Here is my video...



Head on over to Nichole's blog to play along this week!  :)

    I loved the video and tried out the coloring technique and it is just so nice. Also I was so frustrated with dies and stamps never being able to alligned them just right. Now I know how! IT WORKS!

    Great video, Laurie. It's been a long time since I've used OMS and my colored pencils. I'll have to get them out. Thanks for the die tip.
