Hello friends! Today I've got a pretty floral card to share with you featuring no-line coloring with Polychromos Colored Pencils with the Honey Bee Spring Blossoms Stamp Set. No-line coloring is something I totally admire and love but something I struggle with when using many coloring mediums however I have found that I find I get my best results with colored pencils. My hope is that this project will inspire you to try some no-line coloring!

Watch the creation of this spring blossoms card colored with Polychromos from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
The flowers and leaves from the Honey Bee Spring Blossoms Stamp Set were stamped on Desert Storm Cardstock with Simon Says Stamp Barely Beige Ink. I wanted an ink that I could see while coloring but that would lighten as it dried enough so I couldn't see the lines.
The images were colored in with Polychromos Colored Pencils and then die cut with the coordinating dies.
A background was created by stamping the Honey Bee Spring Blossoms Stamp Set on with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with Simon Says Stamp Gold Embossing Powder.
The background was die cut using the larges A2 Double Stitched Frame Die and then adhered to a white top fold card base. The Love You sentiment was die cut from gold cardstock and white cardstock adhered to Fun Foam. I layered the pieces and adhered them and them and the flowers to the background as shown.
I finished the card with a scattering of Honey Bee Stamps 4 Leaf Clover sequins and Moonlight rhinestones.

This card was so pretty! I received a present with craft paper and it looked like white embossed flowers on it. I thought "wouldn't this paper make great cards"? I tried it and used that technique with the white colored pencils first and they were wonderful! Thanks for your input.
