Happy Wednesday, friends!
Today I have something fun to share with you...a Copic coloring tutorial! Would you believe it's a video tutorial??? It's my very first one; so please be gentle. :)
The card above is the finished sample. I used Flourishes Nasturtiums stamp set. The gorgeous ribbon and crocheted lace are also from Flourishes. You have got to check out the ribbons at Flourishes!!! They are the most fabulous ribbons I have ever used...especially the silks! Yum-O!
I also used a couple of Flourishes new Copic Collections to do my coloring, Tiger Lily & Evergreen. Those collections make shading your images a SNAP!
Here's the recipe for my card:
Stamps: Nasturtiums
Papers: Classic White, Always Artichoke, Porcelain Designer Paper
Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black, Tiger Lily Copic Marker Collection, Evergreen Copic Marker Collection, Daffodil Copic Marker Collection (flower centers)
Accessories: Copper Finishing Touches Heart Pin and Brads, Ticket Corner Punch, Ivory Crocheted Lace, Moss/Olive Silk Ribbon, Sewing Machine, Dimensionals
Okay, here's the video for ya:
Thanks for watching!
Check out the Flourishes Newsletter, as well as Julie's, Latisha's, and Stacy's blogs for more Copic coloring fun!
Have a great day!
Hugs~
