Playing with Color

I was playing with different Cuttlebug technques for an upcoming class and this one went in another direction! :) I started by using the Floral Fantasy Cuttlebug folder then I colored the embossed areas with my General Chalk Pencil crayons. I bought these years ago and have not used them in ages I rememebered why a few minutes into coloring the embossed areas! They smear everywhere!!! Very annoying.

I then stamped a butterfly from the Hero Arts set Antique Engravings with my Versafine ink on watercolor paper. I colored this image with my MUCH easier to use Tombow markers. I love how it turned out! I cut it out then used pop dots to mount it to the embossed panel.

I stamped the Hero Arts Thinking of You from the Leaf Prints clear set with Memento ink and mounted it on white vellum.
