  • Hi guys!
    I had a request some time back to share a specific distress ink background which I have finally managed to get round to. I will share with you my background in Melpomeni Chatzipanagiotou’s Enchanted Earth. This page will be available as a full colouralong shortly - however I thought I would share the background portion separately for those of you who do not enjoy full colouralongs.
    The materials I use include:
    - Drawing gum and brush
    - Distress inks - seedless preserves, wild honey, worn lipstick, stormy sky, shabby shutters.
    - Ranger blending tools and round sponges
    - Water, brush and paper towel
    - Winsor & Newton gold ink
    - Maskaway eraser
    I love how the background turned out, hope you do too!
    Hope you enjoy the video and find it interesting!
    Until next time…
    Happy colouring!

    I absolutely love this background, I am going to get those specific distress ink colors, I love them together, it can work on a lot of pages, the waterdrops and gold really made a huge difference. I don't have the drawing gum yet, but I will have to get that too, it makes it so much easier for me to do a background. I have chronic pain in my arms and hands due to fibromyalgia, therefore a background takes a lot of time with pencil, mostly I use pastel, but that isn't as bright and bold as this.
    I also have neocolor II but I am not that confident with them yet, I would have to watch more tutorials to really get to know how to use them in a good way. I used them one time and I wasn't really happy with the endresult unfortunately, but I know you can make really beautiful backgrounds with them.
    I always learn a lot from your tutorials and I love your work.
    I can't wait to see what you will create next and of course watch the rest of the tutorial for this page. Have a really nice week dear Shelly and lots of joy coloring this month 🥰💜

      I am so glad you liked this video and I am glad you got another option for backgrounds. It is definitely a lot easier on the hands than an all pencil background! And a lot less mess to use than soft pastels - although I do use my soft pastels a lot too. But like you said, soft pastels will give a much softer and lighter background effect. It is fun to occasionally have bold backgrounds. I am o glad you enjoy my videos....thank you so much for taking the time to watch them! 🤗💗

    Hi Shelly, Thank you so much for this. I just finished following along. Hubby purchased me the full range of the mini distress ink pads a couple of years ago. I was intimidated by them and this was my first time using them. I had so much fun and the background turned out wonderful. Can't wait to start the second color along for this page.

      Hello! I am so glad you managed to try using your distress inks....I hope you enjoyed following along and the end result of your page 🤗💗

    Beautiful work! If you dip your paintbrush in soap first it is a lot easier to clean your paintbrush. Hope that helps you.

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  10 місяців тому

      Thanks for the tip! I will get another paintbrush at some time and give it a try. This brush is definitely ruined 😂💗

    I purchased the Ranger spray bottle and it worked good at first but now it doesn't work as well. When I read reviews on Amazon some people said they had the same issue, but I was hoping it wouldn't be the case for mine, but it doesn't seem to spray as good as it once did. Your background is stunning as always! TFS!

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  10 місяців тому

      Thanks for letting me know! I definitely won’t bother getting it, I guess wr can still get splash results without it too 🤗💗

    I think you work so beautifully with ink on your backgrounds I have some of them but I never really cared for them I found them hard to work with but I never bought the little pads either maybe they make it easier. ❤

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  10 місяців тому

      Thank you so much Jackie! Yes definitely give the pads a try and see how it goes for you. Let me know 🤗💗

    I have the woodless watercolour that match the distress inks, and go in with a small brush to the edges, but I’d not considered using the drawing gum and being a bit freer with the inks. I use an old waterbrush for the drawing gum and push water through after applying gum, this cleans it a bit better and it’s in much better condition than my poor old ‘dry’ brush

    • @shelscolouringjourney

      I have heard distress crayons are wonderful to use! Glad this give you an idea of how to use them a bit more freely!! 🤗💗

    I really love your coloring style and just generally your content on here is some of my favorite. I know doing things like color-alongs can be quite time consuming and tiring and I was wondering if you've ever considered doing speed-coloring videos, similar to so many of the speed painting videos that are out there but with coloring pages instead. I know it would make it hard to show the specific color being used for very long but I still think it would be a nice option not only to maybe make things a little easier for you but also to put out more accessible content for newer people.

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  10 місяців тому

      Thank you so much! So happy you like my videos - I should definitely give speed colouring a chance, probably more likely to fit in with my available time at the moment! Thanks for the suggestion 🤗💗

    Hello again. This is Wanda. I found you a few days ago and I have been on a binge regarding your videos.
    I love each and every one. They are so interesting and detailed. Your artwork is beautiful.
    Question: I have about 48 distress oxide inks and 14 oxide inks. Can this background be done with the oxide inks also? Tfs

  • @nedanashu5025
    @nedanashu5025 11 місяців тому

    Have you every tried using blender brushes to apply the inks? It gives you more control I think, you can get them in different sizes.

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  9 місяців тому

      Yes!! You are very right…I do have them and I do use them occasionally. Depending on my page and if I use drawing gum or not….when I use drawing gum I usually tend to use the pads 💗

    You ever use the masking fluid pens ? How are those:

  • @elizabethnaisbitt1795
    @elizabethnaisbitt1795 11 місяців тому

    Gorgeous background, but can I ask do you have to seal the distress inks afterwards, as I'm sure when I've tried them before they transfer to other pages. Tfs

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  9 місяців тому

      Thank you so much! Glad you like it ☺️
      To be honest, once it’s dried up I haven’t noticed transfer - when colouring the page I don’t notice it smudging or anything. However, I do use a fixative on every page I colour just to avoid any possible transfer, which may be the reason I haven’t seen any transfer?! 🤗💗

  • @diamondslashranch

    Loved the demonstration. Does the ink go through to the other side at all?

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  10 місяців тому

      Thank you! Very slightly in a few spots only - I didn’t let the paper dry prior to adding more water, so that’s probably why (and the paper in this book is slightly thinner than her other books sadly) 💗
