Alert: Picture heavy with a long post.

Card 1

My first card with Crazy Double running stitch rectangle  Nesting Dies panel with a swooshed inking technique panel of DI and colouring with polychromos colour pencils and added a few gems for sparkle. It has Autumn mood and feels to it!

I love this pretty stamp set with so many floral images and sentiments.

Here are the steps in making:

Dabbed some Distress inks onto a glass top to show you clearly. You can use craft mat too.

Repeat with different shades of DI. Spritzed it with water, so the ink form droplets.

Swished that die cut panel through the ink.

Placed the card back once again onto the ink surfaced to pick up a further layer of inky droplets.

Stamped the flowers with masking technique using Jet black ink.
Now I used my Polychromos pencils to add depth and shadows instead. You can see the difference adding the colored pencils made on the depth of the flowers!

Card 2

For this card, I started with my own background by stamping label images in different dye color inks.

Stamped the rose image using these 3 inks shown in the pic.

Colored it with my polychromos pencils. And stamp the sentiment.




Using inlaid die cut technique, I die cut the Bold word BE from You word die set out of the stamped rose image and popped it up.




Card 3

This card is started with the blending of distress oxides abandoned coral and crushed olive, added water splatters for textures. The flower images were stamped on watercolor sheet. The blue shaded flower is colored with ZIG markers plus using of white gel pen for the centre. Added a strip of DP with a stack of bold you die cut ( 2 times) and a sentiment. Finished with a green color droplet.

Here are the steps how I added my copic colors to  the flower images:

Well, that's all for the projects! What a difference adding that bit of colored pencils made to my projects. I hope you'll try adding some extra oomph to your colored projects by combining your mediums!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Happy crafting!
