You've Got Mail!

Here's a sample of some images I colored with the Chameleon pens. I used Taylored Expressions You've Got Mail - Valentine for these cards. Since I'm still in experimenting mode, I stamped a couple to play with, and in the end just made them into cards.

As you can see I kind of lost control on the post between blending. The downside to blending using just 1 pen is the many times I have to put the pen in contact with the toning chamber. It's trial and error on how long it takes before you can color the entire image you want with the amount of lightness you need. As you can see, somewhere halfway through the pole, I had to re-ink again. For small images like the birds, it's not a problem. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.


This card uses the same stamp set from Simon Says Stamp, I just added the border, but my big mistake was using Wink of Stella glitter brush pen. I squeezed it too hard thus instead of just highlighting the border, I kinda made a mess of it. The "love" is a die from Taylored Expressions.




Enjoy!
