Although the Painted Blooms set does contain bonus coloured images with a dark outline, sometimes it's just fun to have a little play to see what happens. Inking or doodling is a technique that you can use on any image to add a little oomph!
I've printed one of the pre-coloured images from the set onto a piece of smooth, white card stock. I'm not going to worry about following the shapes exactly, which would give a fairly rigid feel to the image, instead, I'm going to add short, curved lines that loosely follow the shapes within the image.
If you look closely at the card you can see that I also added some grey shadows to the right and bottom of each leaf and flower. This just gives the image a little more weight and substance.
