Sarah, I got my ATC out in the mail to you Saturday.

Fantastic ATC, Yankee! I hope your foot is healing!

I have played around with this technique some and I really like the inktense pencils with it. So far I tried those, prismacolor and crayolas. All worked well but the inktense did seem more vibrant.

No problem, Melissa. Hope you had a nice trip.

Iring got the ATCs I sent her. I did 2 because the first Fiesta Chicken was something of a test. I stamped with Versamark & used white EP for the images. The coloring was done with Sharpies. It got a bit 'muddy' in some spots, but I found that the technique worked as an alternative to white ink & colored pencils--neither of which I have.

For the 2nd ATC--Trees & Frog--I restrained myself with the coloring so some of the white remained showing. I also found that using the side of the marker tips helped lay in the color.

I completed one but was unhappy with it.  I am letting it sit and may try another if I have time today.  I still have a bit of time before the mail by date. 

Daniel, I was surprised how well the sharpies colored on the white embossing powder!

I received my my ATC from Far North.  It is absolutely beautiful.  I can't wait for you all to see it.  The flower has such beautiful shading on the flowers and on the leaves.

Thanks for the compliments Ann!  I just posted my ATC in the gallery.  It is a little blurring cause I was trying to keep the photo at ATC size.  I think they don't look the same when increased in size...but guess the gallery settings rule. 

Here is my link.

Thanks for looking!
Jan

PS Heidi-glad you achieved an ATC that you are happy with!  I will wait a few days before seriously looking for it in my mailboxl!  Thanks for the update!

I'm glad you like it, SWLady. 

Here's my June ATC

So I had a duh moment when I saw Jan's ATC in the gallery.  I misread the tutorial and thought you were supposed to heat emboss the image, not heat set the image.  So I used white embossing powder.  I think I would have gotten brighter colors if I used permanent markers like Daniel did instead of colored pencils.   :o ::)
