What did you use to put the color on the paper. I tried a sponge and it looked sloppy. Yours looks so light...not what mine turned out like :( Did you then dab, swirl or ? And since I am asking questions...did you do the embossing first or after applying the color? Thanks for your help.

First, let me thank you all for the nice comments. Now on to Mary55075's questions... I embossed the card first. I used a sponge and first tapped a little color down on the middle of the image I was coloring and then I swirled the sponge around in a circle. I would start in the middle and work my way out to the edge. On some items, like the leaves, it was more of a back and forth motion. I made sure the sponge was rolled up and only a small area was used for inking the image. I hope this make sense. Let me know if you have any other questions.
