When I started coloring this Blossoming Cherry digital stamp,I as not thinking of the Hues to Use. I just wanted to do something different as I recently colored with pinks. Which, if course Cherry blossoms usually are. I had heard about the classes at Kit and Clower and signed up. This was my practice sheet. Well, not the first practice sheet, but it turned out too good not to make into a card. You can imagine my surprise when I saw the colors on the Hues to Use.
The instructions and video's are so easy to follow and once I got my Spectrum Noir markers organized by color, I was so much easier and I have more respect for them now.
See for yourself!
I used the ditial stamp Blossoming Cherry and made it bigger, easier to color that way. The die is Memory Box Wrapped Scalloped Rectangles and the word die is from DieNamics. I cut the words twice in dark brown and layered them so that they have lots of dimension.
This was very rewarding and I can't wait for the classes to color hair and faces.
Think about joining in the Hues to Use, if you do, you could be a quest hostess.
