Neutral Vintage Flowers: coloring winter whites

January 11, 2017 by Sandy Allnock 44 Comments Filed Under: Copic Intermediate

Sometimes a stamp set cries out and says oooooh! Pick me! Even if it’s intended to be stamped with the solid/graduated stamps in the set, I just had to color it with my Copics.

Watch the video below or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.

The neutral colors would be lovely for a sympathy card as well….

    Most of the time, I watch videos to get inspiration to make something of my own design. BUT, after watching this video, I want to make this card, with these colors. WOW!. Thank you Sandy!!!

    I just love enjoying your talents in colouring in your videos. This is an amazing card but I know if I attempted this it would be an epic fail…. I love cardmaking though as there are still many techniques that even a “no natural talent artist” like myself can do and still feel quite happy with the end results! Thanks for all you do to inspire us!

    another thought: the very dark in the center background is really not noticeable at first. You really only see the focal flower, which is kind of the point, isn’t it?

    Just lovely. I didn’t get what you were saying at first, but figured it out as you went along. I was really glad you softened the centers of the surrounding flowers. For a while there, they were competing way too much! As for the dots, I had to look real close at the photo to figure out what you had done–I thought they might be those little clear drops! Glad you explained that. I love hearing you talk–I learn so much from you, but like lots of areas of life, it’s a process over time. For someone with no art training who is just discovering my artsy side, I generally get what you are talking about! (I have been told that I am really articulate–during a time when I felt like I couldn’t express ANYTHING well. Just goes to show you: you really can’t trust your feelings. You are doing just fine.

    I am so impressed with your work. I would love to take a coloring class from you! I would also like to meet you. We are neighbors. However I work with Spectrum Noir pens so it’s can be a challenge to translate from Copic to SN.

    I never would have looked twice at that stamp set until seeing how you made such a beautiful, almost sepia tone card pop out. It looks like a lot of work to get it to look like that, but with the video, we can always try! Thanks for the painstaking “how to”…your efforts inspire us!

    That is just amazing! Do you ever do color along videos? I’m in the middle of your Copic JumpStart class and I would pay to join/subscribe to a color along series! (If you already do this, forgive me, I’m a bit new to your blog.)

    Lovely! I had my doubts about three quarters of the way thru the video but you managed to tone down the centers and your dot recovery was inspirational. I often have those “oh, crap! now what do I do moments?” Great to see your way of handling that

    Oh my, this is a real stunner, Sandy. And you are so right about certain stamps that absolutely need to be bought. My sister (to whom I seem to have passed on the stamping bug last year) and I both fell in love with this stamp set, so I ordered it (along with plenty of other fun stuff) during the Black Friday sales and I get to play with it before passing it on to my sister in the Netherlands. I think I will try to stamp it using my new Altenew warm grey inks before attempting to colour it in by hand.

    Wow! Beautiful coloring!! Love that you added the white on top of the brown dots! I love watching your videos. I think you explain the process as best as possible. I was wondering if you have tried Power Poppy stamps. They have such beautiful floral images.

    You said it right when you said some stamps just jump out at you and say pick me! Instantly when I saw your finished coloring I knew this was right up my alley. It is so beautiful and you did explain well the reasons for coloring this way or that on this project. I’m not very good at coloring with markers but this one makes me want to try!

    Sandy – it is just mesmerizing to watch these flowers and leaves being lifted up out of the cardstock! Your talents really shine on a project like this. Love the way you added white gel pen to the little dark “freckles” and made them into dew drops! There’s a saying in card making that if you make a mistake just cover it with cardstock and move on. Now we can add, … “cover it with cardstock or white gel pen and move on”!
