You're Amazing! (Forest Elf)


It has been a busy Sunday and I almost didn't make it to my computer to share my Day 3 project for The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge. But here she is! This image is called Forest Elf and can be found in the Alicia Bel Digital Stamp store. And I truly do think this image is amazing! I had a great time coloring her and I am especially excited about how her hair turned out. The image is colored with Copic Markers. I wrote down many of them that I used, but not all; so I will share what I have.

Copic Markers:
Dress: G99, G63, G61
Eyes: G17, G14, YG13
Hair: E49, E47, E44, E42
Bow: E18, E15, E13
Arrows: C1, C3, E18, E15, E13, E44, E41
Backgorund Blues: B000, B0000

The cardbase is True Black Cardstock from Papertrey Ink.

Thanks for stopping by!

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!

Hello!

It's Day 1 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge hosted by Kathy Rac. I have a card to share with you using a digital stamp from All Dressed Up.


I used Copic markers to color her and dies from My Favorite Things and Jaded Blossom to complete my card. The background paper is from Authentique and the cardstock is from Papertrey Ink. 

I'm looking forward to sharing lots of coloring this month and should have plenty of time since school is out for summer break and I have lots of days off! Yay!

See you here or on my Instagram page tomorrow with Day 2!

Goal, It's Your Birthday!

My son has been playing soccer for years, so I was super excited to color this sweet image from Lily of the Valley digital stamps. I have wanted this stamp for some time, but it wasn't always available as a digi - so glad it is now!


I gave this card to my son last month for his birthday. We had such a great time. We went to the park and he invited friends from school, church, and his soccer team; so we had quite the gang. The park had a basketball court and a big field so they played a little basketball followed by baseball and then kickball. It was fun to see a bunch of kiddos just outdoors having fun!!!



Here are my color combos the best that I remember them. I wrote them down on the backside of my piece in pencil as I colored it but forgot to write them down somewhere else before gluing the panel to the card. Oh well, I tried!

Blues are the B 90s
Grays are the Cool Grays
Skin Tone: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000
Hair is the E40s
Grass has Cool Grays and a couple of green colors

Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks Beary Much!


It's been Teacher Appreciation Week this week, and this is a card that I made that was suppose to be given to my daughter's teacher. It didn't make it to school with her gift, but we will give it to her at the end of the year.

I used an svg file from Little Scraps of Heaven. The dies for the panels, the word die, and the sentiment are all from My Creative Time. The pretty floral paper is from Simple Stories Vintage Bliss.
