Colored Pencil Tutorial
Color a soft layer all over
blend in circular motion with stump and oil till you have a smooth finish!
Add more of same color to start to shade sides
Add little darker blue now and blend again
You could stop here. Light med and dark blue. Now watch.
I added purple to create depth. I blew out the brightness on the pencil so you could see the color I used
Add some reds and another layer of navy.
A little more navy and some blending. At this stage the surface is so smooth you don't even need any more baby oil. you could pretty much just use the plain stump after the second layer.

Thank you so much, Roberta!!!
When you say blend in a circular motion are you talking about with baby oil?
Crap....sorry, I just have to read closer!!!!! -

Yes. Put a sponge in the bottom of a baby food jar. Put in some baby oil so that the sponges are saturated but not submersed. Poke the sponge with your blending stump to moisten it and then to the paper to work over the penciled area in circular motions. NOT TOO MUCH OIL THOUGH! Otherwise your paper will get oily!

Thanks...that was going to be my next question. I need to get blending stumps because all I have are these things called Fantastiks. Kind of a stiffer foam brush. I wonder if they would work!?!

Great! I always use the same color and never thought to create more depth with other colors (like the purple and red here) Thank you for sharing!

My DH let me get some goodies at Michaels yesterday.Woo Hoo!!!!I got some of the Prisma pencils,stumps a couple of clear stamp sets as well as a Martha Stewart punch around the page punch set. Tonight I practiced on a small bird image. Not to bad for my first attempt. I used the OMS. Might try the baby oil to see which I like best.
