would you, like to do something fun with them?....take a look here

what you need :

• plain flowers

have you ever wondered how to color in stamps ?

there are various ways of doing it :

1. using corloring pencils
2. using aquacolor pencils and water
3. using pastelcolors and a low odour solvent such as sansodor

i am no expert at this but perhaps a few simple pictures will help you along.

what you need :

• good quality paper .
• pastelcolors of a good quality
• low odour solvent
• rolled paper stumps
• stamp
• archival ink , waterproof

what to do :

Stamp your chosen image on the paper with archival ink

choose from your pastelcolors

color your stamp , you don't have to fill the spaces completely

you can choose to do each color seperately or do all at ones

dip your paper stump in the sovent , only the tip

and use it to distribute the pastels in the spaces

continue until all spaces are done , use a different paper stump for each color

as i said i'm no expert, it's up to you now to become one :)
