I color my stamping image first!!!

Playing with paper said...

depends on my mood but I find it easier to chose papers first then match in the marker colours.

Flo said...

I color the image in first, and then it sits there for awhile until I get around to finding the right paper, and then then embellishments. Usually I have a few colored images waiting to put together.

Ardilla said...

To tell you the truth, I love coloring more than making the project... normally I color the image and then I think how to use it and which materials I'll use. I have hundreds of images colored!!!!!
(Though, I found easier to combine when I first gather all my supllies and then color the image)

Andrea Murdock said...

I have tried to do both but find it goes much smoother and faster for me to match my colours to my paper.

Janina said...

Love the coloring part WAAAAAY more than the making a card part. LOL So, obviously, I do the coloring of my image first!!!

peggy wainman said...

I have done it both ways

SweetMissDaisy (Anna Wight) said...

I do both ... sometimes I just know how I want an image colored, so I do it first. Other times, I match colors to the papers I want to use.

Susie said...

I nearly always color my image first.

windycindy said...

I get all of my supplies together, first. I usually know what colors
I want to work with...
Thanks, Cindi

Most of the time I pick the materials first and then color.

Life Full of Sunflowers said...

I get my materials together and then have fun :)

Cat Tidwell said...

I have done both, but majority of the time, get the papers together first and then match with the markers.

cdjcape521 said...

I actually color the image first, and then stress out because I can't match it, LOL!

Kim said...

I always, always, always pick my patterned paper first, pull out the matching Copic markers and then colour my image. THEN I pull out all my embellishments etc to finish the card!

Crafty Math Chick said...

90% of the time I select my patterned papers first and color my images to match them; occasionally I like to color for the sake of coloring and color the images first and then see what papers and patterned coordinate with it when I am ready to use it in a card. Thanks for so many chances to win your markers!

Kristen said...

I tend to pick my color scheme first and then my markers to co-ordinate things the best I can.

Unknown said...

I pick my papers then color match the image to it. :)

Hugs,
True :D

Riette said...

Color first!

Kathy said...

Color first then hope I can match everything else. LOL

Sharon Peele said...

Good question, now that I thiink about it, I guess I color my image first. and then go from there.

Lisa - papergrace said...

Hmmm... I think I get my papers, etc first and then color. I use the papers as my jumping off point.

SmilesALot said...

I have done it both ways. I find that coloring first is risky. :p

Golda said...

I get everything together and try to make it all work before coloring.

RitaR said...

I've learned the hard way that it's much easier to select my color scheme first and then color my image to match my cardstock and patterned paper.

Penni said...

Usually I find my papers first and then colour my images, but sometimes I just like to sit in the evening and colour (usually whilst watching some rubbish on TV LOL!!!) however I then spend an age trying to find some matching papers !!!

Billie Dee said...

I do both, depending on the project. I may pick the primary colors and then color at will.

Leslie Hanna said...

Most of the time I pick my papers and layers first, then color the image to match,

LeslieT said...

I color an image first and then match my papers and cardstock to that!

The Hagens said...

for me, it's paper and layout first, then marker colors to match.

inkstazonme said...

I get my papers and everything together first, then color my image to match it.

JKB said...

I collect the components first then match the colors to them. Safer to have what you need ahead of time to complete the item.

Alison H said...

I pre-color images!

momsforest said...

Both ways...

Giovana said...

I usually get my paper first and then color the image, but if I am doing a CAS card I just color it :)

Rosalee said...

I decide on the colors before I start making my card.

Lisa Silver said...

I gather supplies so I can match the colors to my paper.

Christine said...

I pick my papers first, then my stamp, then my embellishments after it's all coloured! If I colour first, then I'm in trouble! :)

Ashley Newell said...

I color first. I wish I planned better.

Babe O'Mara said...

I usually get my materials together first, but I have done it the other way too.

well I know that I SHOULD choose my papers etc first then colour my image to match, but in reality that never happens - I colour my image then MAKE my papers and embellishments match, if all else fails i make an all white card and colour ribbon and bling with my alcohol markers to co-ordinate

I know the comp has passed, but just thought I'd answer anyway! :) I pick my paper first and then colour my image to match. (I've tried it the other way round before but had to spend AGES trying to find matching paper!) Hugs, Sem x

Sue VanDeVusse said...

I usually color the image first and hope to be able to pair up some dp with it.
