Video: Coloring With Pigment Ink + Mama Elephant Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi, there. Today I have a few fun things – a video showing a creative way to color with pigment, a blog hop and giveaway!

[Supplies are linked in thumbnails below. Click HERE to watch on YouTube.]

I really enjoy finding ways to stretch my products and get more from them. Today I show how to color with pigment inks. I first stamped parts of the floral arrangement with my favorite white pigment on my favorite kraft paper. This white acts as a light “foundation” on the dark background… to which I could add color. I used the handy Fantastix inking tools to “draw” pigment ink color over the white. So very easy to do and I think the soft results are very unique.

The images are from the new Mama Elephant Sweet Havana stamp set that was just released. Such an elegant set. I also used the Mama Elephant pigment inks.

Today, Mama Elephant is releasing several new products, which you can see HERE. My favorite set? It is the Splendid set, which I recently used in the Watercolor for Cardmakers Online Card Class. Here is a peek at the project from class, along with the fab stamp set…

This post is also part of the Mama Elephant May Stampede blog hop where we are featuring their newest product release…
