Colouring Teddies.....






How many times do teddies crop up on stamped images? I must have about twenty teddy stamps, so today just a quick look at colouring them with Promarkers. I don't have any particular colours, it depends on my mood and the type of image, but there is a whole range of colours that are suitable for teddy bears of all types, which I will list at the end of the post. The first image is a Lili of the Valley stamp




This next card was made using Popcorn the Bear, a Crafters Companion stamp from the UK. It's quite a big stamp, so I kept the card simple. The huge scallops are a border from the Straight From the Nest Cricut cartridge. Look how the sentiment matches the image perfectly, that's because I used a Promarker to ink the stamp......... the doodled dots were done with my Promarkers as well








So here's today's tips and tricks. I was amused to see that I left a whole paw totally uncoloured on the poor demo bear, how on earth did I miss that?




















Colours suitable for teddies




Sandstone - tan - caramel




Pastel Beige - Putty - Caramel




Sandstone - cinnamon - cocoa




Putty - tan - spice


I have had a lot of emails asking where you can buy the storage wallets in the USA. You can order them direct from Letraset. For shipping costs look HERE. To calculate in dollars, use the google currency convertor. By my reckoning, the wallet, including sales tax would cost around $15, shipping would depend on how many you buy, but around $17 for two I think


I'll be back tomorrow with a video on colouring clothes, especially that hard-to-do denim
