Every once in a while, I share a tutorial for how to add color to a stamped image without using markers to actually color them, which can be tedious at times. Today, I am using the Far Away Landscapes stamp set to do this, and I just love how these cards turned out. Let’s take a look at them.

Featured Stamp Sets
The Far Away Landscapes set is one of those stamp sets that doesn’t look like a lot until you see finished projects. As you can see, it includes three nice landscape stamps.
I also used the Family Ties stamp set, which has beautiful greetings for Mother’s and Father’s Day.
Coloring Without Coloring Card Samples
1. Stamp on designer paper
A great way to add color to a stamped image is to choose a design designer paper with appropriate coloring and stamp on top of it. Here you can see one example of this.
2. Add color with a texture stamp
To add color to this image, I used a texture stamp from the Swirled Designs bundle. Watch along with the video for details on how I did this.
3. Scribble!
Technically, I did color the image below, but I did it with some quick scribbling with my Blends alcohol markers. What do you think?
Will you try these techniques soon?

I hope you enjoyed these cards samples using the Stampin’ Up! Far Away Landscapes set along with ideas for coloring without coloring!
Love your videos. As a relatively new stamper, I’ve learned a lot from you. Also enjoy the end of the videos about life. Thank you.
Glad I can help. This is a truly awarding hobby. It is something we enjoy, and then we get to bring joy to others when we send them the card. It is so amazing! Truly, a ministry.
Very very interesting!! Thank you for different bug creative ways to “color”
I love coloring. There is so much you can do with coloring to make amazing cards.
Anna!
I love your videos!!
love this idea
Glad I could help!
Love this idea of not doing ‘precise coloring’. Each card looked great! Thanks for the tip!
What a great video showing other coloring techniques. I love your videos and enjoy all your creations.
Thank you for this video! I usually avoid scenery stamps, but you have shown how easy it can be to color! I always appreciate your videos and tips!
I loved these ideas!
Thank you! I hope they help you.
pretty cool technique to coloring!
Where do you come up with these great ideas!??? I would never have thought of doing that with those scenery stamps and I probably would have been scared to buy them!!! You have made them look so beautifully amazing!!! I am in awe and so impressed! Thanks for that! I will defiantly keep watching to see what beautiful ideas you come up with next!
Thank you so much! I was actually amazed how beautifully these turned out as well. Thanks for following along and watching my videos!
I loved this video, I’m more of a precise color person, but I loved all of the video’s think I might just try both ways. God Bless and thank you.
