Use a sponge. some cheap or even kiddies water colours or acrylics from any hobbyist. Or... even use the watercolour pencils...water down a fine sponge and wipe the pencil over it many times... you will have plenty of colour. You can freehand some strokes on for skies...or just backgrounds. <BR/><BR/>If you want better delineation in sort of rainbow colours... hold a piece of paper..either torn or straight edge.. on the rest of the card..do a stroke across and then just move the paper down the distance you like...do another stroke of another colour etc...voila.... <BR/><BR/>great job on the stained glass look alikes....BumbleVeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272892605379537233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9157945799061174429.post-46352600391435548542008-10-16T04:42:00.000+01:002008-10-16T04:42:00.000+01:00Kristin, Your card is beautiful!

Makes me want to get the ole sketch tablet out again...maybe I will. I'm in dire need of some unique stamps :) Oh, and the replicas you created of the candle stamp are amazing! I hope you make a card or two out of your hand drawn images! Thank you for sharing your designs!!! I love them!Kristin Eberlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03624721611891994051noreply@blogger.com
