I have been seeing this absolutely beautiful coloring on projects now for about 8 months or so. Well, today is my day to try it! Now rumor has it you can substitute baby oil in place of gamsol. I bought baby oil - so, what do you think? THIS is one of those MY FAVORITE CARD projects!
I CAN color, I REALLY CAN!! hee hee. Seriously, I had so much fun, and it was so easy~~ Colored Pencils, baby oil and a blending stump. Here are the directions for
Gamsol Technique. Just replace baby oil for the gamsol. [Shoot -this could of been my first tutorial] Since this didn't fit any challenge, I just wanted to share with all of you. Try this sometime, it is really fun and relaxing!! Enjoy~~ EDITED: This fit the inspiration challenge over at STV~~ how perfect!

You are so much fun! Yes, you CAN color! Beautifully! Colored pencils is almost all I ever use. I can't get Gamsol where I live, so I just use low odor mineral spirits that I pick up at Wal-Mart or Lowe's. A can lasts a lifetime! Great job, your card is awesome!
Weel girl you colored this perfect!!!! Breath taking!!! I'm gonna have to try but mine sure won't look anything like yours , but I have fun trying hehe
