Coloring Petal Palette Designer Series Paper

Hi there Stampin' Friends!
I have been intrigued by the new Petal Palette Designer Series Paper for a couple of reasons. First, any black and white combo is always easy to incorporate into a design. It can be the main thing or the background thing that points to a wow component. I also am intrigued by the easy and numerous ways there are to color this paper!  Let's start here:


As you can see, I took a plain piece of the Petal Palette DSP and used our new alcohol markers, the Blends, to color:



The difference before and after coloring is pretty dramatic, don't you think!  I then turned this colored piece into the card above.

What about foam brayers? Here are some pictures of my use of them...




This proved to be the quickest way to color the paper!

Next I tried Watercolor pencils and the blender pen.



I then wanted to try the Aqua Painter, remembering to not use tooooo much water as this paper is not watercolor paper!



Lastly, I wanted to try a background stamp and I picked my current favorite, the Marbled one.




All of these were fun experiments, didn't use up much paper and gave me some idea of what different things I could do with the paper. Altering paper with stamps and ink is what we are all about, right?!

If you want a pack of this fabulous paper or any of the tools I talked about, see the supply list below. Click on any of them and it will take you right to the online store!

Thanks for stopping by and checking out ways to get ink on paper!  There are probably more so I will keep thinking about it!

Happy Stampin'!
