Colorful Leaves in Two Steps

Hi everyone! It's Jill here with a project using Stamper's Big Brush Pens.

Step One:
Color directly onto a stamp with lot of solid area using Stamper's Big Brush Pens. Mix and match different colors to add depth to your project. Stamp onto white cardstock.

Step Two:
Color onto outline stamp with Black 199 Stamper's Big Brush Pen. Stamp directly on top of previously stamped leaves.

For added depth and movement, outline stamped images with a PITT® Artist Pen in the color of Cold Grey I 230. Add additional shading to leaves using Art GRIP® Color Pencils. Color with Stamper's Big Brush Pens onto an acrylic block, mist with water, and then flick this "paint" with a paintbrush onto project. Finally add a touch of Earl Grey Gelato™ to the edge of the die cut piece by coloring directly onto the paper and blending using fingertip.

Happy Stamping!
