Day 16 - "N"

Today I've used a clever technique called no-line colouring that makes your stamped image look more like a drawing. It works with all colouring mediums, including pencils, which is what I used to colour this little guy. For a basic tutorial click HERE - although it focuses on digital stamping, it's the same process for traditional stamps.


YOUR TURN: Create a paper craft project using the letter "N" as your prompt.

AMAZING job on your No line coloring Beccy... It should be for the Letter A for AMAZING, the Letter W for WOW !!!!, or the Letter B for BLOWS me away... Adorable simple Adorable...

I've never tried no-line coloring but what I notice is how soft the image looks around the edge. I always thought I needed that hard line to stay inside of. Maybe it would be better to color outside the lines sometimes. Super cute image, Beccy. I'm going to give this a try!

Sarah said...

How cute is that. I need to figure out how to do the no-line coloring. That is awesome. It sounds funny to say coloring outside the lines but that is how I feel thinking of this technique.

Oh that bear's so sweet. Can't wait for Christmas. Take care!

He is so sweet. I think I might go buy him right now so he can come home with me and show me how to color him. Lovely!

What a cute image, I love this card. I can't believe that this challenge is up to 'N' already! I started off with good intentions to make a card for each letter and then my hubby whisked me away on a surprise trip to Iceland to celebrate my birthday and I haven't even started on 'A' yet. I've got a lot of catching up to do! xx

Incredible coloring, Beccy! I need a lot of practice on the no line technique but it does give wonderful results when someone like you has mastered it. :-D

I have not tried no-line colouring yet but I really like how it looks, sort of like an illustration in a children's book, very nice! And this little gingie just makes me smile! This set is at the top of my wish list so he and his gingie friends are going to be mine very soon!
