Quick Background coloring with Stampin' Up! blending brushes on True Love black and white designer paper by Patty Bennett

 

I’m thrilled you enjoyed my video tutorial featuring coloring with Blending Brushes last week!!  If you missed it, watch it here. I archive all of my videos on my PattyStamps YouTube channel so that you don’t ever miss one.  🙂 

In addition to the cards we made with the Blending Brushes and True Love Designer paper, I also showed you these 4 ideas for quickly coloring 4 other patterns in the True Love Designer Paper Pack.

ABOVE: I used 3 colors of ink pads – Rococo Rose, Seaside Spray and Mango Melody – to color the flowers with blending brushes, and then quickly filled in the leaves with the light Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends marker. 

BELOW:  For a more monochromatic or ombre effect, I used Rococo Rose, Merry Merlot and Blushing Bride ink pads with my Blending Brushes for the beautiful rose pattern in the True Love designer paper pack.

ABOVE: a softer look was achieved by randomly applying Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray, Highland Heather,  and Magenta Madness ink with Blending Brushes to the True Love designer paper.

Below: blending several colors of ink on the flowers gives a little more artistic look. I used Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo and Mango Melody ink pads for coloring with the Blending Brushes, and added Granny Apple Green and Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends for the leaves and small flower stalks.
