Hello everybody! Today I am sharing some fun coloring with Nuvo Alcohol Markers. These markers come in sets of three which make it really easy to pick some great coloring combos. Personally, I love mixing and matching my own color combinations to try to achieve a dramatic look with my coloring.

I started off by stamping the Flora Background stamp onto Craft Perfect Smooth White cardstock with Black Shadow Ink. This ink allows you to either watercolor or use alcohol inks without the risk of your stamped image smearing. This paper is one of my favorite papers for coloring with alcohol inks as it absorbs the ink and allows the colors to blend smoothly.

Next I colored in my image with a variety of Nuvo Alcohol Markers from five different sets. Here are the colors that I used:
  • Flowers: 373,374,375, 379
  • Leaves: 410, 412, 416, 417
  • Background: 360, 363
I colored one petal/leaf at a time starting with the lightest color. Then I added shading in getting progressively darker as I went along. I went back over my coloring again with the lighter colors to make sure my colors were smoothly blended.

When my whole image was colored I cut it out and adhered it my black card base with foam tape. I added a heat embossed sentiment from Celebrate Sentiments and popped that up too. To finish my card off I added Nuvo Crystal Drops in Metallic-Mustard Gold.
