Collage Coloring

 The Technique Junkies has a bimonthly newsletter- and we learn new techniques to try. This month we learned a way to colorize college images- Circle Colored College.  Here is my try:

 The best part- you can use digital images too. I used SU Cameo Coral cardstock and a R22 Copic to color my seam binding to match. The berries are colored with R22 and R24 and I added Crystal Effects over that.
The B165 corner die is by Cheery Lynn Designs. 
 The Image is a digital image from Create with TLC.  

 If  you use digital images and have not been to Create with TLC, stop over there and get on her blog list- Paulette is very generous and has the greatest sentiments around!  And, one more member till she celebrates for 1900 followers!

Challenges:
Outlawz- Paper A La Mode- Inspired by Nature
The Poodles Parlour- Use a digital image
The Stamp Man- Use summer colors
CRAFT Challenge- Summer
Oldie but Goodie- used circle stamps that have not been used in a few years!

Thanks for stopping by!

What a fun technique - sort of like spotlighting. Love the colors you chose and that double bow is gorgeous.
