| Great Impressions "Rose Trio" |
When coloring with Spectrum Noir markers you want to be able to blend shade and colors together, which usually means flat lines that can be colored over if needed. Well, I thought I would try embossing and coloring to see if the shades would still blend. I found that if you still color over the lines you end up with wet color that is still blendable into the next section. The blending technique still worked even with the roses being embossed. I am quite pleased with how this turned out.
I stamped this image using Versa Color "Pinecone" ink and embossed it with Tsukineko's "Iridescent" embossing powder. The "Happy Anniversary" stamp is from Stampendous Special Messages set and was stamped with Versamark Watermark and embossed with Martha Stewart's Sterling embossing powder.
The following is the list of Spectrum Noir markers I used to color the image.
Roses - CR10, DR3, DR7
Leaves - CG2, DG3 (palette blended)
Shading - BGR1
