Altenew Woodless Coloring Pencils

Altenew is adding another product to their coloring line. Honestly, I have been looking for this for such a long time. I love coloring using coloring pencils because I feel that I have more control over the shading. Coloring Pencils are easy to travel and since I do most of my coloring on the go, pencils are typically my go to option. 
Picture
The Altenew Woodless Coloring Pencils have a nice grip to them and I did not get hand fatigue when using them. The color is very vibrant and was easy to blend. When I first get a set, I swatch my colors. I like the 32 colors Altenew chose to be in this set. There are enough pinks, blues, greens and yellows to color in any image.

There are 32 colors in the set. I keep a swatch book handy in my craft room. When I get a new coloring medium, I immediately swatch the colors.
In my card example, I colored a previous Paint-A-Flower release: Paeonia Japonica. When I color images, I like large florals so I can really shade and blend. I also start out with the darker shade and get into the nooks of an image. I then blend the dark out to the lightest. To finish off the card, I heat embossed one of the sentiments from the set onto a strip of vellum and added that to the card base.
