Coloring on the Cheap!

Hi ya everyone!  I'm going to share a very simple tutorial on what kind of images you can color cost effectively.  Thank you to the lovely Pam for letting me share with you at The BugBytes today!  I enjoy my Copic markers so much and think that they are truly the best marker for coloring large images such as the Tiddly Ink Alice image above.  However, for smaller images like the tea cup a cheap pair of Crayola colored pencils will do.  Check out my video below!
Thanks for watching and I love to hear your comments!  For more fun projects don't forget to stop by The BugBytes!

    Like I commented over at Sheila's, I might even be able to do this accent coloring with the pencils! LOL!

  3. What an adorable card... and even though I now have my copic markers, we both know that before them I was coloring with a set for only $5 plus the little crayola pencils and it works!
