Jules

Hi Copic Lovers,

Tracy here with a cute little Saturated Canary image called Jules, isn't she a darling.  I don't normally do digi's as my printer doesn't like them and they usually end up with dirty faces, but I printed in draft and the ink didn't run, hooray!

The spellbinders floral oval is one of my recent purchases, just love this die and I have also used the new Marianne Design flower die, in case you didn't spot it, its the daisy style flowers in the grey, I really like it.  You also get a branch in the set and I have cut this out in black and popped a butterfly on it.

Love Builds A Garden

 I am a sucker for romance,
and can't resist a decent love story.

That's why I was so thrilled to post a copic project

on Valentine's day.

I choose "Full Heart", 

a digital image, made by Mo's digital pencil. 

While I was coloring, I looked for a title to use.

Elton John's song "love builds a garden"

was going through my head.

The image reminded me of those lyrics....

 " And love builds a garden
Grew it from the ground up
Each one of us knowing
Every inch of it was us
We pulled it all together
Hoping and believing
That love built this garden
For the two of us to dream in "

I hope you don't mind
when I get a little corny, 

as I dedicated today's post
to my own private cogardener.

Copics: 

Skin: E0000/000/01/02/11/21

Marshmellow Gift Box

Hi everyone,

What's sweeter than a sweet present to a lovely friend?

So I have made a Marshmellow Gift Box in sweet pastel colours and filled it up

with white Marshmellows... miam miam!

buttons, thread, white ribbon and a bit of glitter glue. 

 I've coloured this cute Mo Manning Digi-Image with following Copic Sketch Colours:

I love Mo's images very much, i think they are just adorable and funny, so i went with one of them this time and i chosen this lovely girl blowing dandelion clock.

I used my favourite colour combo again on her hair trying to get separated the single strands.

 
Her t-shirt is white, but i added some shadows with my cool greys: C0-C1 and C3 to give it more dimensionality.

Papers are from My Mind's Eye and Maya Design, sentiments from Stempelglede, love them so much!

I added a little Magnolia Tea Tag and i printed on it only the word "Dreams" from a Stempelglede rubber stamp:

Spring is in the air...

Hello Copic Lovers! It's Delphine here today to share the card I made, a little card with lots of grass and a bit of sunshine... Yes I am now waiting for spring!

Next week it 's Valentine's Day

Hello, 

normaly I am not so into Valentine,
but these lovely Magnolia stamps forced me to make a Valentine's card.
I made this one for somebody I am very fond of.......

I found a tutorial about this "swing card" on the blog of Norma
You can find it here

So cute to make and you can place 2 images and some texts on the panels.

This card is difficult to catch on the picture. This is the opened look.

I have used cartdstock from my (large) stock.
the flowers are made with a die of Crealies. The swirls are made with a Vintage Border die of Joycraft/Noor-design. The deigner, my friend Joland made on special request the border ends mirrored, I am glad she is some one who listens to us crafters.

on the central panel, there is place for some sweet words

I used these Copic Markers

Special Baby Card

 Hello, dear Copic fans,

today it is me, Barbara/Kreativmonster, for you and I want to show you a special card I made for the parents of a newborn child. The young father is a big fan of rock music, so I thought that this image is just perfect for the birth of their son.

The image is "Biker Babe", a digital from Mo Manning and I really like it very much.

Of course, you can not make a card with traditional baby-boy-colours when you use this kind of image, so I choose papers from WeRMemoryKeepers that look like a t-shirt and a lumberjackshirt.

To make the babe's jeans look used I worked on it with the Colorless Blender.

Here is a close-up of the coloured image:

As always with my baby-cards, the inside is decorated, too:

Because there are several baby bottles in the image, I added a little baby bottle charm. The ribbon is very thick, so I had to fasten the bottle with a piece of  unwaxed silk floss I had coloured with B79.

These are the Copics I used:

Skin: E50, E51, E53, E02

Tattoo: R20

Shirt: T1, T2

Jeans: B39, B79, Colorless Blender

Baby bottles: T1, T2

Teat: E97

Sunglasses: E97, E33, E35, E37

Shadow: T2, T3, T4

Shadow around image: B0000

I hope, the young couple likes the card and you do so, too!

Big Hugs

Coloring wood

Hello there Copic fans!

It's Keren here, in this Sunday morning, with a new copic creation.

 For this project I used the digital image "A little birdie told me".

The girl in the image is leaning over a big wood windowsill, 

so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to show you how I color wood.

I choose a bunch of browns E40, E42, E44, E47, E35, and start coloring...

With my E40  laid my firs layer, coloring all the wood area.

Than with my E42 I laid some strokes of color over the wood Lines.

And did the same withe my E44, 

I also colored the areas I wanted to be darker or for shading.

I made everything even by coloring again with the E40, to combine it all together.

And laid some more strokes of color with E44.

And with E47.

And with E35

If your page getting too wet with ink, let it rest for awhile, before adding more layers.

You can keep adding more layers until you are satisfied with the outcome.

On top of everything I flicked over with my E42. 

Here is the complete colored image and my card.

 

Copic's:

Face: E0000, E000, E00, E21, R20
Hair: Y21, 23, Y26, Y28
Clothes: R81, R83, R85, R89
Windowsill: E40, E42, E44, E47, E35
Background: BG70, BG72, BG75, BG78
Bird: YG00, YG21, YG23, YG25, BG32, R05

Pennant Card...

Hello there everyone!

Åsa from a snowy Sweden here today.

I really like pennants, in all shapes, so today Im going to show you a card in the shape of one.

I´ve used red and white dotted papers from Jillibean Soup together with kraft and white cardstock.

I´ve used my Spellbinders to cut out the shapes around the image.

The image is a stamp from Sweet Pea Stamps.

I´ve colored her with the following copics:

Skin: E21-11-00-000-R20-11

Hair: E18-15-13-21-33

Leafs: G21-BG96-BG99

Flower: R59-37-35-29-W5

When I color skin I always color from dark to light, and then end with the cheeks.

When I color hair I usually do the opposit, I color from light to dark.

This makes more contrast in the hair, and I like that.

Have a wonderful Weekend!

Hugs, Åsa
