New stamp and revisiting old background stamps:coloring with Spectrum Noirs, Zig clean brush pens, watercolor pencils. and freebies

A couple of weeks ago I made an internet impulse purchase. I was offered a 20% off coupon through Stamp Junkies group for Brutus Monroe Brand. Bait cast and I was caught, plain and simple I hang my head, thankfully it was only 16.00. If there was any redeeming value to the impulse purchase, it steered me back to my collection of beautiful background stamps. I took a good look at all the beautiful stamps I have and then I re-organized them. Beautiful backgrounds are one of the things I love in stamping. I think I got sidetracked by all the great paper I use for backgrounds. So while I was busy with the background stamps I decided to try using a few coloring techniques with my Angie Girl stamp. That is what I am going to share with you today. Here is the first card and details to follow I created this sketch for my Monday CCM group Sketch challenge Here is the New Monroe stamp, clouds - it is a very thick clear stamp A few favorites I haven't used in
