💙💜Celebrate Release Blog Hop – Simon Says Stamp💜💙

Hello Crafty people!

It’s time to celebrate! Because today we’re having a New Simon Says Stamp Blog Hop Party! the April release it’s packed with amazing stuff : stamps, dies, stencil and embellishments!

And today we are celebrating the new release with an amazing blog hop! there is so much inspiration in the blog hop so be sure to check all the entries in the hop! 💙💜

And for today’s coloring I’ve decided to play with one of the new stamp set which is called Flower Power to create my coloring!

I’ve decided to hand drawn a big capital letter for this coloring… capital letter is a good idea for a friend’s birthday, isn’t? so after drawing the letter I’ve added all the flowers around and colored them with my beloved copic markers! 💙💜

I adore these flowers because they are super simple and so fun to use! as always I’ve added some contrast with a black pencil for the shadows and little sparkles here and there with a white gel pen.

For the color combo I’ve used the light-blue, blue and purple colors and I adore how they works together! 💜💙

Hello crafty people and welcome or welcome back to my blog!

❤️❣️ Self- Love Potion – Simon Says Stamp ❣️❤️

Hello crafty friends and welcome or welcome back to my blog!

I’m here to share with you a new coloring I did for Simon Says Stamp, this time using a very “basic” stamp set with all the hearts. These basics stamps are so fun to use because you have TONS of hearts in so many different sizes and you can use them in endless possibilities! ❤️

For example in this coloring I’ve hand drawn a little potion bottle and stamped all the hearts in the inside! …we all need a SELF-LOVE potion some times, isn’t?❤️

as always I’ve colored everything with my blonde copic marker and added some shadows with a black pencil. Black pencil really helps you adding contrast to your colored images!

After I’ve finished the whole coloring with a white pencil I’ve added the reflection effect to the bottle! ❤️

🍋💛 Just sitting here… – Simon Says Stamp 💛🍋

Hello crafty friends and welcome or welcome back to my blog!

I’m here to share with you a new coloring I’ve made for Simon Says Stamp! As you know I’ve designed this fairy themed stamp set last spring and to this day I still use it very often!

I adore this stamp and I love how it can be used on so many different ways!

This time I’ve hand drawn a huge lemon tree branch and stamped my little fairy on one of the leaves. 🍋

after I’ve hand drawn the branch and added the little fairy I thought it was missing something so I’ve pulled an older simon says stamp and stamped a few of these butterflies.

as always I’ve colored everything with my beloved copic markers. 🍋💛

💙 💛 One stamp, four coloring mediums – Simon Says Stamp 💙💛

Hello crafty friends and welcome or welcome back to my blog!

Learning is one of my favorite things to do and I challenge myself every now and then to use different medium for coloring, try a new technique or even a different color combo! When you go a little outside of your comfort zone you’ll always learn something new! 💙💛

And that’s exactly what I did for today’s coloring!
I have a ton of coloring mediums sitting on my craft room and for today’s coloring I’ve decided to pull out some of them to color the same image, with the same color combo but with different coloring mediums! 💙💛

so, for this coloring I’ve used four different coloring mediums and you can see how changing the coloring medium the results are so different from each other! the coloring mediums I’ve used for this coloring are:

COPIC MARKERS

DISTRESS WATERCOLOR PENCILS

PRISMACOLOR PENCILS

KARIN BRUSHMARKERS
