Card - Amethyst Mist

Hi, As I haven't been able to do much over the last couple of weeks, I've been spending a lot of time colouring. I mainly used the Copics, but then decided to do some images using Watercolour Crayons. The crayons are used on this card, and as I love all the Sweet Pea stamps, I thought I'd enter it into the "In A Sweet Pea Dream" challenge.


Here is a close-up of the colouring. It is very similar to the Copics, although much softer.


To show you the difference, I've coloured the same image twice - the left with the Watercolour Crayons, the right with the Copics. I've tried to match the colours to give a similar effect.


This is a Stampin' Up image - again the Watercolouring is on the left, and the Copics on the right.


I hope this gives you another technique to try when colouring your images. I'll have some more to show you over the next few days.

Till next time,
Luv, Tereesa.
