Hi and welcome to my blog! I realized when getting ready to make my card that I did not have much to color with! We are in the process of moving and I have packed up a lot of my crafting stuff. If there is a will there's a way, right? I saw that my finger daubers were still left out, so I decided to color with those! I stamped the pumpkin stamp and just used my finger daubers that had ink left on them. I did not use my ink pads. This was fast and easy and the colors blended so well. This method of coloring works best when using a stamp that is large and basically one color. I will color this way more often now!
A cloud stencil was used to make the sky and again I used finger daubers to color it and the leaves.
Stamps: Pumpkins - Impression Obsession

You did get lovely results using your ink daubers on these, pretty blending of it all!
ReplyDeleteI, too, love finger daubers for a two-tone look. Your clouds are perfect and your pumpkins look 3D. A nice layer of leaves adds a nice touch. Layers are so nice on cards. Beautiful work.
