When I received my stamp set I was scared of it because I am not into coloring images because I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on Copics and learn how to used them. Instead, I turned to old school supplies. I choose coloring pencils and chalks. After I colored the girl with my pencils I went back over it with chalk to give it some depth.
I frame the girl with natural twine.
I apply two ink to the word bubble before I stamped it. It gives a nice ombre effect. I also add a small piece of twine to the girl's hair for a ponytail holder.
