Stamping and Coloring on Wood Slices with Colored Pencil!

[@ebyn77]

These are just so pretty, happy and bright! I think coasters are a great idea.. I could even see them hanging in a kitchen window

[@alf8211]

Thank you for sharing tip about arteza pencil crayons , I agree they have the best looking colour🌈👍

[@angeladear9237]

These would be great to add labels and hang from jars in your pantry and kitchen. You could color images to go with your decor. Kind of a new twist on the current “farmhouse” obsession. And I definitely see them stamped and colored for Christmas tree ornaments and for gift bags. Are you still doing craft fairs? You could package them up in groups. They would be cute hung on purses, bags, keychains...I think they would even be pretty with a pin back and worn as a decorative pin with a coat or scarf.

[@changchesserly7591]

Yes on version with alcohol markers or acrylic paint please! 💕🤗💕 Also great tip at 7:13 on the timeline for helping to keep pencils sharp. Hugs . . . ❤️

[@cazhowe737]

I just love all the craft ideas you come up with. Fabulous! 😚

[@janetwalsh7025]

Beautiful! Did you seal them?

[@melindastroup1844]

Your videos are so helpful, Lindsay! I've just rediscovered this one from five years ago after ordering some blank wooden ATCs. Thank you!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Glad it was helpful!

[@starlaarts9385]

These are very pretty. I scrolled past this video several times because I thought it was a cookie decorating video. That is how well you did! 🙂

[@rubberartist]

I knew you would have a video on this! I just got the wood slices from Arteza, and I have the markers they demonstrate, but I love my Arteza pencils and I have some of those stamps! My inspiration today, thank you!

[@joannecarroll5504]

So unexpectedly colourful!

[@junebovenzi]

I have arthritis so when I use colored pencils, I use silicone grips that slide onto the pencil. You can purchase the grips at an office supply store in packs of 6.

[@craftingforalmosteveryone]

Really loved this idea and I love it when you talk as you craft. Thanks for the great video! Sandy

[@fortunateadventures3664]

Love all the bright colors,great project to try with my nieces when they come over to visit,their favorite aunt,hehe.😊👋

[@tiasmom6225]

I love this project Lindsay, and your pieces turned out very pretty! Great idea, thank you for sharing and also for explaining the differences in how the different brands of pencils behaved on the wood. ❤️🌹

[@yelsyels]

Thank you for learning me to experiment Ink watercolours and graphite and ink pens with watercolours ! Love both! I would love to see you create a butterfly in your Wednesday beginners course!

[@debbien.3315]

They came out beautiful! What a great idea. If you are using them for coasters you will want to seal them. Arteza pencils are somewhat water soluble, not quite as much as water color pencils, but they do bleed when wet.

[@yelsyels]

i just want to share with you as you are a super tutor! I have found my love of ink and watercolour but have also found a love of ink based colours with graphite!

[@sarahnewcomb8206]

Love this idea for my stash of color pencils.

[@terrie1226]

Great project.....I can see my grand children coloring the wood pieces....tfs

[@naturesbestart3288]

Sooo beautiful. It's so great to listen to someone who has so much knowledge about the products to use to get great results. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@anitaholmes6824]

These look like a lot of fun and quick too! TFS

[@Donna_G]

Those are really cute. I can see them being used as bases for pine needle basketry work.

[@michaelannfitzgerald8742]

Wonderful idea! Thank you Lindsay 🤗

[@emotyka1]

Love these and how creative you are!

[@SssvcreationsAu2015]

Epoxy resin over the top would make them look awesome 🙂 I have done that with some of my art work and it makes the painting pop out even more 😀

[@leannemitchem8865]

That is really cool. They are so pretty. A lot of great tips too. As always I learn so much from you. Thank you for sharing!

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Great crafty idea, Lindsay! TFS!!😘✨👍🏾

[@GeegeeJo0311]

Thank you for sharing this..

[@azzuparis]

This is such a great and fun project. I really love it and they came out so beautiful! Thank you, Lindsay ❤️

[@ArtByEsterA]

This is such a great idea. I’ve done pyrography as well as painting for a very long time. And I never colored my pieces. So this is a super cool way to freshen up some of my creations. But I also love your idea of using them as coasters, tags for gifts, etc. thank you!!

[@carolstover8198]

Adorable. Great keepsakes, gifts.

[@beckymartin1810]

These are beautiful and I have to try this! I have been looking at their watercolor brush pens now I will check out the wood pieces too. I think they would be great little gifts!

[@maritzacolon]

Love this! I wonder could you glue a magnet behind it for a refrigerator decor? Or will it be too heavy.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

A rare earth magnet would hold

[@DineseBeckert]

Thank you! I was recently gifted with over 11K (SERIOUSLY) of stamps! Now I know how to use them in conjunction with my alcohol inks! My watercolor arteza collection pens/brushes and EVERYTHING!🤗🙏👍

[@JenaTuckerAquariums]

Wow!! 😁

[@loke-art7383]

Cool idea an beautiful

[@WendyBellino]

BEAUTIFUL Lindsay!

[@noemicavalli549]

Beautiful! You're very talented!

[@bck0725]

Love your work! Discovered colored pencil on wood 3 years ago! Love them. You can also buy the wood from Michaels.

[@karmenkrafts496]

Thank you so much for the lesson, and i enjoyed the video, you give great information, i wish you a wonderful day!

[@Linda-qq5mg]

They turned out great! This is yet another art a

[@Linda-qq5mg]

This is another way to use art! Ps I pressed the wrong thing before!😬

[@deborahrusignuolo7612]

So very and this is a great idea. Thank you for sharing.

[@Cherryblossum101]

I'd love to see a demo all with the same image but with different mediums (marker, wc, paint pen, etc)!

[@patriziaravani828]

Ottima tecnica. Grazie.

[@isabellabihy8631]

Very nice idea, Lindsay! Question: Would a thin coat of gesso on the wood discs help reduce the use of the colored pencil plus aiding in adding details? Edit: In order to make these beauties practical, can you put some lacquer on them for protection? They should be able to take a moist wipe for cleaning off.

[@BeaneCat]

This looks like soooo much fun!! Do you think one could do it with water-based markers as well? I have some markers from Hobby Lobby with truly AWFUL nibs (So hard and rough, they peel paper after one stroke!), and I think they could be useful for a project like this because I don't mind the nibs getting "messed up".

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Sure. As long as you are not worried about fraying the markers:)

[@jeanb.7963]

Beautiful thanks for sharing! I was wondering what other uses I could use my ink pads for..

[@kimsargeant8126]

When I was working as a Naturalist, we called these tree cookies and visitors/campers could decorate them to use as name tags.

[@TypicalStonely]

I'd love to see alcohol markers!! Would a cheap set of sharpies work that you could get a set just for this project? I bet the metallic ones would be beautiful on them, maybe Christmas ornaments or coasters. I have Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis and have very little hand strength, but would LOVE to do this!!! Thank you!!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

I'd only do it with cheaper markers in case it harmed the nibs with the wood being slightly rough.

[@RonSnayberger]

I was waiting for this video. Even though I might use my Arteza pencils I like my Prismacolor white. Brighter and stronger color white.

[@MerijaneArtist]

To use them as a coaster, do you need to seal them and if so with what kind of sealer? Love them! 👍🏻

[@theresa_lili]

I had to go back and see what she said in the beginning. She said we could but because its was she doesnt think we need to

[@jamiwomack2129]

Very cool TFS

[@Peeachez]

Those a pretty

[@bowiespace]

This is a great idea. I just ordered the wood online from Your suggestion. I am going to try my Inkintense pencils and see how that works. Have you tried those?Thank you for your terrific ideas!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

That should be fine, just use wAter rather than gamsol.

[@carolclark4933]

This is a really cool idea. They worked out beautifully! Thanks for sharing. :) o) :)

[@latisarieves3375]

The wood rings are beautiful heres an idea for your gamsol jennifer mcguire did a tutorial on gamsol and alcohol ink refill pens where she filled and labels one with gamsol and one with the alcohol ink thinner I cant think of the name rigjt now sorry but I think that refill pen will work great for you as well

[@gigijohnson3211]

I watch your videos religiously and have a question. I help at a senior center on side and use alot of my own tools. Where would be a reasonable place to look for drawing lessons. Stamps have become very expensive and not quite enough money to obtain. Thanks for any assistance.

[@BarbieBud]

GiGi Johnson why not trace them on with some kind of pattern?

[@craftytravelfrog]

Maybe just add a bit of felt on the "backside".

[@doughutcherson9358]

What is the name of the color pencils.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Arteza expert, amzn.to/3XXZcjj

[@annettefournier9655]

Oooo, pretty! Just love how the wood grain shows through Especially on the daisy. I'm still working on the pussy willows. Coming out of the third hot mess stage LOL. Might have helped if I did it following along but I did it from memory. Mine is wild and crazy.😂🤣 Thanks Lindsay 💜

[@BarbieBud]

Gambol is still toxic although it doesn’t have an odor.

[@denlynne]

teach me how to conceal the color so it’ll last?

[@thefrugalcrafter]

I never sealed mine and their fine but you can use clear varnish

[@denlynne]

thefrugalcrafter Lindsay Weirich thanks love😘
