I stamped the bird using VersaFine Vintage Sepia ink and then colored the image using Tsukineko Brushstix and various colors of VersaMagic ink. This is my first time using the Brushstix on a card that I was willing to post on my blog so please be kind. When I had previously tried using the Brushstix I realized that the type of cardstock I like to use (PTI's Stampers Select White) isn't the best choice. So I tried it this time with a smooth cardstock and got a much better result. Now that I have found a cardstock that works well with the Brushstix I hope to do more coloring with them.
Thanks for stopping by....
Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill smooth white; Stamps: ODBD You Will Find Refuge & Thank You Messages; Inks: VersaFine Vintage Sepia, VersaMagic Brick Red, Straw, Gingerbread, Jumbo Java, & Sahara Sand; Memento Tuxedo Black; Brushstix
