On how to give some color to your intricate die cuts!
The background was sponged with distress inks and sponges....
see the green on the left...
as for the intricate die....
When die cutting, do not tear apart the die from the paper...color on top "randomly" with different shades of a same color of markers, color pencils or even use daubers ...
I used 3 different shades: a light, a medium and a dark one...
No particular way, no need to be careful...this goes VERY quickly!
same result if you are using color pencils or daubers with ink...
When you tear it apart this is the result: a multi color branch
For the word: I trace with a ruler lines of color with the markers;
start with one or two lines of a lighter purple over the word, move the ruler trace some more lines with a medium tone and finish with a darker color...
a last view
Remember this technique can be substituted by other mediums....
Some Other Options:
Replace the permanent markers by using the same steps....
1- with watercolors brushes
2- with Prismacolor pencils and "Gamsol"
3- with sponge daubers
4- with "Versamark" ink and embossing powders for a shinier effect...
6- with chalks/ "Panpastels"....
