There are only flowers stamps used here. If you vary the height and angle of the stamps you will stop it look like repeat stamping. The stamps give quite a sketchy appearance which helps to cover up any mistakes in colouring.

The images are coloured in using the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. I’ve used quite a few colours to blend the yellows. I love colouring, it is such relaxing past time when I’m feeling stressed and anxious.

I’ve used the Holiday Rhinestones to fill some of the white space. To me, it looks like pollen blowing around in the breeze. I’m so pleased they carried over as I love all the

I love this stamp set. Inspiring Iris is a two-step stamp set but I have chosen to colour it freehand with a blender pen and Stampin Write markers. I love purple irises as they are so vibrant and strong. I used to see them every year when I went to the Chelsea Flower Show as they are the backbone of many gardens.

The colour Gorgeous Grape is divine because it’s such a deep and majestic colour. I would love to have a dress in this colour with silver heels. If I can find some wool in this colour I might knit myself a winter hat. I can knit and would like to get back into knitting as well as my paper crafting.

As previously mentioned I coloured this in with a blender pen and the Stampin’ Write Markers. I put some colour down on a stamping block with a marker and then picked it with the blender pen. You can see this in more detail in the accompanying video below.

So my question for today is what is your favourite medium to colour in with? Do you prefer alcohol markers, watercolour pencils or Stampin’ Write Markers?
