Here is my first attempt at coloring a child image. This is a digi stamp freebie I got somewhere here in blogland. My blogger friend Cheryl is always doing amazing work coloring with her Prisma pencils, and she inspired me to give it a try. Check her blog
here to see her work. I've been coloring with pecils before, but just using Crayola colored pencils. They do not blend well at all! So I broke down and bought some Artist pencils, these are called Kimberly, by General. And they blend quite well. They are watercolor ones. I think it came out well for my first try, the only problem I had was when coloring, the ink from the printer wanted to bleed. So I had to be careful on the edges. Now I'm going to have to find some cute image stamps to use!! Thanks for looking in!

tip for the ink,try setting your printer to normal instead of best,it uses less ink,that way and uselly works well for my images,another tip is to use your heat gun,gently for a few seconds,too,hugs cheryl xxxxxxxx
