Purple Hues

I took a trip over to the stamp store in Missouri not to long ago and they had this tan mixed media paper and it showed a pretty colored pencil drawing on the front and I thought I should give that a try and see how I do with coloring on it.  I need a lot more practice but I do like the results I got on my first try with it.  I used shades of purple and white.


Stamp - unknown, colored w/ colored pencils
Strathmore - Toned Tan mixed media card stock
Tim Holtz - Crochet die
My Favorite things - Label Maker sentiment stamp
Stampin up - enamel dots

Esther has been using her Tim Holtz crochet dies quite a bit and I finally broke down and bought the set myself :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today and I hope you are enjoying a nice weekend.

Connie, it's so soft and beautiful with your pencil coloring! I know this paper is used a lot for pencils and one of these days I'll try it, too. There are always so many things on the list! Love the crochet die. So nice to see your pretty flower today!
