Today's Way's to use it challenge was to use colored pencils. I already stamped and cut out the birds and embossed the background using the new Bird Call folder. So, I dusted off the colored pencils and went to work. I used an aqua painter to blend the colors. The birds are from a soon to be released set from Innovative Stamp Creations called Marvels of Nature II. I also dusted off my inkworx art gun to spritz close to cocoa ink on the naturals ivory layer.
Here's another sneak peek of a stamp to be released by Innovative Stamp Creations the week of 9/2 called Walk in the Woods. This one was stamped in Versafine onyx black and colored with copic markers. The ribbon is May Arts and the philosophy tag is Tim Holtz.
Have a great day!
You should dust off those pencils more often!! This looks fabuous!!
