While I love Copic coloring images, I thought it would be fun to do something different with the adorable Strike Up the Band images.

To do this technique, I first had to find a solid image that I could stamp first. I found one of the star images from Seeing Stars stamp set that would be perfect for the size of the images from Strike Up the Band. Using some fun summery ink colors, I stamped the star using the BACKSIDE of the stamp! (hence the solid image) Once done, I stamped my band critters with black ink. I masked off the balloon and stamped some polka dots from the polka dot star image from Seeing Stars. I stamped the sentiment in bold black ink and added some tiny die cut stars from the Seeing Stars SugarCut.
