Technique Tuesday - August - Coloring

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.
 

Today features the monthly Technique Tuesday projects and the team will share coloring techniques. I decided to try both Water coloring and Stampin' Blends coloring technique to compare for you the two different looks. 
 

For the water coloring I just dipped my water painters in the ink and lightly added the color. This definitely gives you a more subtle look which was perfect for the ocean sunset image. Blends color so well, without streaks and are perfect when you want that full color. I love both techniques but often forget about how simple water coloring can be.
