Trick or Treat!

These three little cuties are from the Halloween EZMount™ Stamp Set - Trick or Treating. 


The images are stamped onto Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock. I colored the little trick-or-treaters' with Spectrum Noir Blendable Colored Pencils, Spectrum Noir Paper Stumps, and Spectrum Noir Blending Solution.  For their skin, I used Spectrum Noir Markers as my first layer, then used the pencils for the shading.  The background is a gelli print from my stash. Click here to see how I make my gelli prints.

Coloring Your Own Drawings with Spectrum Noir

Spectrum Noir Markers are not just for stamping. I like to use them in my original artwork. 

I have been hooked on faces and am having a ball sketching features. I started this piece by adding a soft background with with the eBrush System and Spectrum Noir Marker FS2 onto Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock. I drew a rough sketch of a face.


I laid down pencil, then blended the pencil with the alcohol markers. I just kept playing with color - using the chisel tip for blending large areas - until I was happy with the results. To me, this technique creates an painterly, artsy look - which I really dig!  This was a lot of fun because I could easily blend over any booboos I made. :o)


The flower in her hair is from Sheena's Floral Fantasy EZMount Stamp Set - Wild Rose & Hibiscus.
