The colour isn't normally a problem when you use it on patterned backgrounds or distress the edges. For 'less is more' though, it has been difficult to find a white card that matches exactly.<br />Happy crafting everyone,<br />Gina xGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05566547704458858283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-15218196158365577712011-03-22T22:28:14.437+00:002011-03-22T22:28:14.437+00:00Brill male card, love your positioning. xBrill male card, love your positioning. xAileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12906041828528468631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-44323816306518822072011-03-22T19:11:32.183+00:002011-03-22T19:11:32.183+00:00I think this is so well coloured and the ribbon fi...I think this is so well coloured and the ribbon finishes it off beautifullyKatalytichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09389953942914673022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-45545655030175340332011-03-22T18:02:26.415+00:002011-03-22T18:02:26.415+00:00I love the image you have used and the way you hav...I love the image you have used and the way you have matched it up to the ribbon.

I love your coloring. When I've used it on the watercolor paper, I would say I've had the same "problem" that it's not quite the right color, but no suggestions to fix that.Brenda Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072979400016018073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-86759677860568690502011-03-22T15:37:23.492+00:002011-03-22T15:37:23.492+00:00Loving your pheasant card, they are such a silly b...Loving your pheasant card, they are such a silly bird but so gorgeous.

If you want a good white card for use with promarkers - try the hot rolled card from Rymans - its only £7 a reem in A4 size too so much cheaper than the speciality cardstock sold by craft shops but is PERFECT for colouring with promakers/copics or pencils with blending solutions.Tara Cardwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09323902839923352075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-2106844133245333922011-03-22T10:47:45.720+00:002011-03-22T10:47:45.720+00:00Super masculine card, the ribbon goes great with t...Super masculine card, the ribbon goes great with the pheasant.Suze Bainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13180376714888253246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601993371459402093.post-35429227102631262792011-03-22T09:07:28.608+00:002011-03-22T09:07:28.608+00:00Superb stamp and wonderful colouring.

I see what you mean about the different colors of cardstock, but from the photography it actually makes the stamp image "pop." We can be our own worst critics, so don't worry too much really. P.S. Pheasants remind me of my grandpa who used to hunt and have feather embellishments in the ribbon of hats. Very old school, I know... but so sentimental for me.
