Blendabilities Meets Dahlias and Swallowtail

Hi there!  Today is a busy one so I'll keep it short.  Here is a sample of coloring with the new Stampin' Up! Blendabilities coming out in the 2014-15 Annual Catalog.  Love, love, love them!  (One of the perks of being a Demonstrator is being able to pre-order new products!  You'll be able to purchase them June 2nd.)  The image from Regarding Dahlias was stamped with Memento Black ink.  Jackie Topa suggested to start with the darkest color first, working your way to the lightest.  You can view her video here posted May 9th.  There are three markers in each pack.  They are labeled dark, medium, and light.  The Cherry Cobbler set and the Pumpkin Pie set was used in the above sample.  The leaves (a solid image from Summer Silhouettes) were stamped with Always Artichoke ink.  Below is another sample colored on the background Swallowtail image.

I started out using the Daffodil Delight set to color the butterfly but it needed "something".  That's when some Pumpkin Pie Blendabilities were incorporated.  Well, that concludes my experimenting for today.  Need to get moving to run errands and meet a friend for lunch.  Thank you for peeking in today!
