"Anti-Coloring" Cards - Essentials By Ellen May 2019 Release

Today I'm going to show you a few cards that feature a technique I'm calling "anti-coloring".  I'll be featuring the new May release stamps from the Essentials By Ellen line.  There's a new Leading Lady, some adorable animals and a new Mondo flower stamp set that I think you're going to love!

These new stamps are perfect for the coloring enthusiast.  But to be honest, I don't always feel like coloring.  It's one of those things that I have to be "in the mood" for.  I decided I would just find a way to use these stamps (that highly encourage coloring) in a way that doesn't require coloring.  And guess what, I LOVE the way these cards turned out.  These big, bold, black and white images create a great graphic pop.

I've linked all the supplies used in these cards below, so they're easy for you to find. :)

I'll walk you through these cards in today's video tutorial and show you how they all came together.  I'll also show you how I created that killer striped paper used on all three of these cards, using the We R Memory Keepers Precision Press Advanced and the Pattern Plate Add On.  Be sure to check it out.If you want to watch today’s video in HD on my YouTube channel, be sure to click HERE to head over there now.
