I recently decided to get myself a little cart to keep my colouring equipment in so that even when i am sat on the sofa i can wheel this beside me and work on my colouring of stamped images. I sourced this fantastic little card that not only looks good and holds everything that i need it too it is also super easy to put together! No screws and took less that 5 mins! It has hanging hooks on the side too which are great for holding scissors and my drawing boards that i lean on to colour.
I've previously worked with Spectrum Noir pens and completed my colorist training a few years ago but i wanted to work more on my watercolour pen colouring and using pencils so have got myself a selection of pens / pencils to work with and test out.
I'm a big fan of all things Nuvo, by Tonic. I'm not sure why but i've just always been pleased with the colour ranges, quality and the look of them on my shelves i think helps too! So i had to get hold of the Watercolour Pens and the Brush script pens too. I'm looking forward to testing these out more but so far i've been really pleased with the ones i have opened.
I've also got a selection of the new Spectrum Artliner pens, both the colour and the black line so that i can test them out for stamp / stencil designing.
I've been making sure when i'm stamping out to stamp plenty of extras (my stamping platform comes in handy here!) that way i will have plenty to practice colouring with different mediums on.I received this pretty little stamp in my Docrafts demonstration kit, its great for practicing delicate colouring in small areas. I'll be around the South West in March demonstrating my Docrafts goodies so be sure to check out where and when here.
If you have a colouring cart / trolley or a colouring area set up in your craft room i would love to see, please feel free to add a photo or link in the comments
