My SU demonstrator sent me some sample of the new coloring pages from SU. I know they are all the rave right now but coloring all of that detail would drive me crazy. So I found a way to use the paper leaving it mostly black and white.
I went with a cameo effect and just colored the smaller vertical piece with Prismacolor pencils--just a quick color in, no shading or much details picking up the colors in the stripe behind which is from SU Cherry on Top designer pack. The sentiment is from a group of children's sayings I found at Michael's. If the recipient likes to color, she can fill in the rest.
This is with the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches

Great idea! Your colored strip makes a nice contrast to the black and white image behind it. I'm not sure I'd have the patience to do an entire page of these drawings, either.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card! I love the look of just the colored panel!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing along at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

I love coloring pages! I added them to my planner this year. I figure that will be a good break when I'm stuck in conference calls that I'm only there to listen. Super cute card! Thank you for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
