Today I have posted another Thomas Kinkade stamp called "Stonehearth Hutch". It was colored with Copic Marker, but could be colored wit any good marker such as Marvy, Prisma-Color, Stamp'n Up, Tombows or what ever you have. The trick, as I said is to color in the bright areas first, then fill in around the bright spots.
This image would make a very nice Christmas card for someone very special. There is a lot of white areas, the snow, in this image. White is easy to color, it's already colored for you, it's white. The only thing you need to do is shadow it in blues, greys, or blue greens.
Here is my rendition;
These images are relatively easy to color once you get the principles down. I have some classes to give at "The Stamping Place" in west Columbia, Sc in September and October. After the classes I will post a tutorial on coloring these types of detailed image.
Your comments and questions are always welcome.
Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Another beautiful Thomas Kinkade card! I am going to try your technique one of these days as I have two TK stamps that I have been intimidated by.
