Colouring with Prismacolor Pencils on Dark Cardstock

Dark cardstock presents an interesting tapestry for colouring and the Kaleidoscope Centre Cut background by Simon Says Stamp is a beautiful stamp for colouring.  I embossed the entire stamp image (centre cut piece kept in) with silver embossing powder, because I wanted to try colouring with Prismacolor pencils.  I used multiple colours on the pattern, but I left quite a bit of black to show off the colouring and the colour of the sentiment.  I used purple, green and blue on this background.  The sentiment is from the Altenew Halftone Hello stamp set (I also used the matching die).  I stamped "hello" in a matching purple colour and the rest of the sentiment was white heat embossed on a strip of black cardstock (Licorice by Lawn Fawn).

This version is the same, except I used blues with a little blue-green for accent.
This one has white pencil colouring and a green sentiment.

I think the purple one is my favourite.
