I am fairly new to colored pencils, but the idea of blending and shadows are not much different in most mediums. Spectacularly designed stamps always help!
- Stamp Wildflower Banner on pencil friendly cardstock, and on masking paper, in Ballet Slippers Dye Ink for a no-line look.
- Fussy cut mask with a small border, apply to image, and stamp previously released Freestyle Stripes in Crystal Pewter Dye Ink.
