Whole Lotta Love and Using a Stencil Background

I'm the color challenge hostess this week at Splitcoaststampers.  I chose colors that I thought would work for Valentine's Day but have a bit of a twist - the blue.  The colors I chose were Flirty Flamingo, Poppy Parade and Bermuda Bay.

This Bundle Girl with a Heart Trail is new from Stamping Bella and really made me smile.  I hadn't colored a Bundle Girl before but was excited to try.  I find round shapes fun to color.

I started by coloring her with Copic markers and Stampin' Blends.  Then I went over her with Prismacolor pencils.  I can get really lost in coloring when I'm having fun with an image and I had fun this time.  I often listen to music while coloring and in this case it was Led Zeppelin (hence the name of the card "Whole Lotta Love").

I also chose to add a stencil for the challenge "dessert".  I masked off my girl after coloring her and stenciled the heart flow.  I made sure to tape everything down very well so there was no slippage.  I would have been a bit upset had  the stenciling not come out after all that coloring!
