In Episode 9 we discuss using distress ink in our adult coloring books. I give an overview of distress ink, the tools to use, and different techniques to use in our Adult coloring books. I also have a timelapse of a matchstick mouse page using nothing but distress ink. Distress ink is a fast and easy way to lay a base coat of color onto your coloring book page. Give it a try! Links to products used are listed below.

Using Pastels of all types in our coloring books

Are you looking for ways to add backgrounds or even just a base layer of color to make your coloring adventures move along quickly and painlessly. If so this may be the video for you.

In this video I use pan, oil and soft pastels in adult coloring books. If done properly you will not even need a sealant. It is always nice to have another tool in the tool box. Pastels are cheap and easy to use! Making them perfect for large backgrounds or for that first layer of color.

Can you use watercolor pencils in coloring books? What about on Amazon Paper?

The answer is YES! I use 3 dollar watercolor pencils in Creative Haven Country Gardens Coloring book.

In this episode of Wind/Wine down Wednesday, I explore watercolor pencils in adult coloring books. The various types of watercolor pencils, different methods to use them, how to blend them and of course how to use them in our adult coloring books- Yup, even the ones with Amazon paper. I do a project at the end with dollar store watercolor pencils in Country Gardens by Creative Haven. With no sealant and no bleed through.

There are only 24 pencils and they are not named or numbered so I have not listed them.

I also colored this cutie in Matchstick Mouse Floral coloring book. I use Albrecht Durer colored pencils in this one.

  • Phthalo Green
  • Leaf Green
  • May Green
  • Grass Green
  • Light Green
  • Dark Cadmium Orange
  • Light Cadmium Red
  • Cadmium Orange
  • Light Yellow Ochre

I am enjoying the ease of using these pencils. They help you lay down color quickly and then can use the pencils dry to add details.

thank you for stopping by

Welcome to Jazzydoodle Designs

I started this blog because my spoiled little companion got tired of me waking her from her nap to look at what I created. And frankly, her response of “not as cute as I am…can I have a treat?” was not very helpful nor gratifying.

I hope you find some enjoyment, knowledge or just plain relief from your boredom while looking.

So now I am a blogger with a dogger.
