CAS3 Day 7

Today in Online Card Classes Clean and Simple 3, we had several lessons on creative coloring techniques. This card demonstrates what I learned about tracing in these lessons.

Tasnim Ahmed showed us how to trace part of a stamped image on a  card with a gold pen and then color it using at least two different colors. When you ink the stamp, you wipe off the ends so the image fades off the paper.

Thanks for stopping by today! I appreciate your visits and your comments very much! We can learn a lot from each other, so keep on coming back!

  6. You did so well with this one! I watched her video earlier today and she colours and outlines so perfectly. Your flower looks so good with the gold outline and you certainly had a fantastic stamp to use. Do you think you would do this technique again?

    1. Yes, I'd definitely use this technique again, with the right stamp. This was about the best one I had for this lesson. So glad she showed it in her video--made me feel better using it.

  7. What an interesting and beautiful technique. Your card is gorgeous - love that gold, I'm going to try this!!! What medium did you use to color the flower so the gold ink from the pen didn't dissolve into a smeary mess? Just stunning!!

    1. I used Copic markers. Some of it did smear beyond the outline, but I just kept coloring!

  8. Nice job, Sharon. I couldn't find a stamp in MY stash, that fit this technique. So I HAD to go shopping, and use my student discount. teehee Well, I HAD to, no choice.
    I have to say that I really like the look of it. I think your card is lovely.
    Selective coloring, who'd have thunk of it? LOL Sometimes you have to wonder, right? I am trying it, as soon as my "new stamp" arrives. HA. TFS !!!
