Have you had a chance to play along in The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge? Today is the 12th day I am participating in challenge! I have found it to be great motivation to work on my coloring.

For today's card I started out by stamping this cute little skunk. I then used colored pencils to color him in. (If you would like to see how I use colored pencils visit HERE.) When that was done I fussy cut him out. Before laying him onto the card I stamped the background. I used the Hero Arts Brush stamp set to create a rainbow stripe. For each time that I stamped the ink, I then took my water bottle and sprayed it before stamping it down. I feel like it gives it more of a watercolor effect than stamping alone would have done. After I put the cute stamp onto the green stripe, I then brought out my marker to draw a shadow effect underneath. To finish the card off I stamped the sentiment and then die cut it.
