Today I have some cards to share with you. I don't know about you but I have the hardest time decided with stamp I want to ink up and color first. So as soon as I recieve a package of Sweet Pea Stamps in the mail, I cut them all out add some Tack It Over and Over glue to the backs, let it dry and then I stamp 2 of each image out and they are ready to color when I want them. But I still have a hard time deciding which one to color first so most of the time I start coloring the skin on all of them, since I don't ahve to pick colors out yst and match papers and embellishments to them. Does anyone else do this or do you just do one image at a time?
For this first card I used one of ching-chou kuiks images called "Lasting Charm" , sheet 29 plate 97. I wanted to color her up in some warm Fall colors and added a lot of different textures. As green and brown are my favorite colors.
For this one I used Karen Middleton's "Light the Stars" sheet #5, Plate #116. I think this little fairy is so sweet. I used some Basic Grey DP.
The roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
Thanks for stopping by today and thank you for all your sweet comments.

I do exactly the same thing as you do when I get my new stamps in the mail( no local stores carry SPS). Although I have not tried your tack it trick, but once I use up all my foam I will.
I love the first card, the green and brown is just stunning. Your coloring always inspires me. I was hoping my Phunky Phairies would arrive today but they did not :(
Oh well I have a ton more to color anyway. Thanks for the inspiration!
Your colouring is phenomenal, are you self taught or did you get lessons? Amazing, seriously x

I colored one by one, but I don't only work with copics.

Hi Angela,
I can see you love your stamps :)
Such a sensational cards.
I just love the deep rich colours which you use.
ohhh I am from these people, who colour the image and the look for papers and embelishments, just because I don't know what image I want to colour and for every image not all the colours give the justice , lol.
Wish you a great week.
