Default Real Stamping Issues - Stamping Techniques

I've been using the watercolor pencils, but not really able to make them
look like watercolors, they look more like pencil marks. I don't think I'm
good at the blending part. Then I just think, why don't I just use water
color paints?

Hi Kare,

The chalk pencils are similar to prisma colored pencils or what ever
type you have. All you do is outline your picture and with a q-tip
you pull the color in and the outside stays darker and you get an
awesome blended color. Clear as mud? Yea I know you have to see it
to believe it. I love the chalk pencils, less mess and all of the
fun. Ha ha ha ha

I have a real hard time with the colored pencils, like the water
colors, but then I can get a blended look and well in my head it looks
like I know what I am doing.

What do you use?

I've never used either. I imagine that chalk pencils are similar to
regular
pencils but create a chalky look. For some reason I never have good luck
coloring with pencils. Maybe you could share your techniques with us.
