Default STAMPS TO COLOR

Could anyone tell me some brands or stamps that are good for stamping and then coloring. I like to color either by colored pencils with gamasol, or markers by using a blender pen. I like scenes , whimsical, etc. I don't have any good stamps for this. I guess when I bought all my stamps, I didn't realize the coloring techniques I would like. Now I have all kinds of products but feel I have no stamps to use. HELP Kei ([email protected])

There are alot of images that you can use with the gamsol technique. My personal favorites are:

High Hopes http://www.highhopesstamps.com/catalogue.php They have a large selection of stamps but they are a small company and they do take 4-5 weeks to before you get your stamps.

Whiff of Joy http://www.shop.whiffofjoy.com/index...87ffe5ba93374c They have really fast shipping.

Sugar Nellie http://www.funkykits.co.uk/catalog/ They also have quick shipping.

Sarah Kay http://www.7kidscollegefund.com/category_s/189.htm

Bella's http://www.stampingbella.com/index.php?currency=CAD

Those are only a few, I am sure that others have different favorites as well. Just to let you know most of the URL's I have set up in Canadian fund so you might want to change the currency for the US prices.

HTH

I love penny black stamps. They have the cutest hedgehog and mice images.

If you have a Michaels nearby, they have started carrying Inkadinkado clear stamps. They have a nice selection and are reasonably priced, about $10 a set, and you can use a coupon and get them even cheaper.

I love to color also, and have several of these sets that I like to use.
