I haven't really had much experience with stamping, I bought some years ago and did some very basic stamping and heat embossing, but not done any since
But I was tempted recently by some cute Hero Arts clear stamps "ClearDesign: Four Dolls Product No: CL29" (Japanese Dolls)
I bought a StazOn inkpad and wish to create the same colour effect that is seen on Hero Arts artwork for these stamps
I presume it is watercolour, but I'm not sure if it is created with Pencil, Stardust Pens, or something else??
Can anyone give me some advice on the best medium to use

Not sure what Hero Arts use but on the odd occasion I do some stamping I tend to use markers (I've got whispers markers but there are lots of others) like watercolours - you scribble on a bit of plastic and brush on with a wet brush or you can outline certain areas and then blend with the wet brush. This is just one idea, I'm sure the Stamping Queen - Fairytips - will have plenty more to share, also I'm sure she's got a stamping workshop coming up soon....

I've just popped over to HA site, they've used Prisma pencils - colouring pencils with a strong pigment, then you blend them. I use Sansador to blend with. Hope that helps a bit

Oh I have quite a passion for the sparkly stuff myself especially when making fairy cards, and I don't think a single Christmas card left me this year without at least some Stickle Glitter glue
I was hoping to maybe restrain myself a little with the Japanese Dolls......
