Welcome to the Coloring Techniques for Card Making Blog Hop! Today we wanted to introduce you to a brand new, must-have book that has been written to help shed some light on some of the hottest trends in coloring techniques in paper crafting today.
Coloring Techniques for Card Making features three of the most popular coloring techniques in card making today--water coloring, colored pencils and using alcohol-based ink markers. Each chapter showcases one particular technique and includes an introductions that will help you choose the products that are right for you, and will walk you through the steps to creating one of our featured projects. Easy-to-follow instructions, detailed materials lists and helpful coloring tips will make it easy for you to achieve stunning card-making results. As a bonus, enjoy a chapter that focuses on ways to highlight and accentuate your projects with products such as glitter and gel pens, shading techniques and methods for creating the look of texture with color.
Aside from the joy of actually writing the book, for me the best part was working with this fabulous team of designers. :) We each needed to pick our favorite project and for me it was HARD! But I really love how the graphics team shot this project using the Pineapple Stamp from Impression Obsession. This is a WONDERFUL image to start with when learning the ins and outs of color using Copic Markers. :) The way the Labels Nine frames this image is just dreamy if you ask me! I hope you like it!
