Because "I Love You"!

Last month's free class from Kit and Clowder used this image to teach us to color on a candle. I still haven't bought  a candle, but wanted to color up this sweet bear image from Di's Digis; so I just colored it up on paper and made a card with the image instead. I still used the Copic color combos and techniques taught in the class. Thanks, Alyce, for another great class!!! It might sound weird, but my favorite part is how the big leaf on the rose turned out, but I am thrilled with the whole image.

The cardstock base is Summer Sunrise from Papertrey Ink and the sentiment is from a company that is now closed. And this is my Day 2 coloring for The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge hosted by Kathy Rac.

You should find my Day 3 coloring here or on my Instagram page (or both) tomorrow. See you then!

Present to Go!

Received this sweet digi from Di's Digi Stamps as a freebie in the Kit and Clowder group and I just couldn't wait to color it up. There is just way too much cuteness going on and I am also a sucker for presents, especially birthday presents!

I used the following Copic combos:

Present: C9, R39, 37, 35, 22
Bow on the Present: V09, 06, 04
Fur: E47, 44, 43, 41, 40
Bow on the Bear: C7, R29, 27, 24
Little Bear's Shirt: BV17, 13, 11
Ground: C3, 1, Blender
Background: a little B0000 around the image

For my shading, especially for the present box, I used lots of techniques from the free Markers 101 class from kitandclowder.com and techniques I have learned in a few of the other classes I have taken from there as well.

The cardbase is Papertrey Ink's Red Poppy cardstock. The dp is from Doodlebug Design. I colored on Hammermill Bright White 100# cardstock. I used a sentiment and die from Jaded Blossom.

Happily Ever After Princess!

Used a digi stamp from Yampuff on this sweet princess card that will be perfect for a Bridal Shower or for a Birthday card for a little princess. 

I have been practicing more with my Copics this year and decided to color up this image after taking the July 2017 Markers class from Kit and Clowder. I'm working on pleats in these big dresses. I love the B90's color combo in the Copics so that is what I used here. I used the E40's for her hair - probably E43, E41, and E40. My background paper is from Lawn Fawn and the cardstock is from Papertrey Ink. The dies and sentiment are Jaded Blossom.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

Hello Friend!

Today I am sharing a card I made using a digital image from Wee Stamps that are illustrated by Sylvia Zet. This image is just so sweet and puts me right in the mood for spring!!!

The diecut used around the image is from Papertrey Ink - Brushed Off Rectangle Die. I also used Stitched Rectangle Frame from My Creative Time. The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye and the white cardstock base is Papertrey Ink.

I used my Copics to color the image on X-press It Blending Card. I am grateful for all I have learned from Kit and Clowder's Skin and Hair online class. It has helped immensely. Next on my to do list is the Clothing Class.

So glad you were able to drop by!
