Hello Everyone
I hope you are all well and enjoying your week.
I was asked if I would do a Guest Designer spot for the
Copic Marker Europe Blog - honestly I couldn't believe it - I even asked if they had me mixed up with someone else - but no they said it was definitely me - so how could I say no!
Have you been across to their site? If not go and check it out
here - they have so much inspiration and step-by-step instructions on there plus a bunch of super talented ladies who just make the most gorgeous creations - oh and not forgetting lots of Guest Designers too!
This is a card I have made for one of my blogging friends - although she probably won't have received it so I will just have to hope that she doesn't see it beforehand (fingers crossed!).
I just had to use one of Krista Smith's new digi stamps over at
Saturated Canary called "Sketchie" which I thought would fit perfectly for a 'Copic' Blog, plus I love her images so much too.
Here is the full card:
The recipe for the card is as follows:
Digi Papers:
Nit Wit "Hey Cupcake" (just lurve these!)
Lace, Seam Binding & Cheese-Cloth: From My Own Stash
The image has of course been coloured with Copics:
Skin: E21 E00 E000 R20 R30
Hair: E42 E41 E40
Wings / Leotard / Shoes: R81 RV00 RV000 RV0000
Tights: E42 E41 E40
Bows: B00 B000 B0000
Copic Sketch Pen: C5 C4 C3 C2 C1 C0 C00 R81 RV00 RV000 RV0000
Shading: W5 W3 W1 W0
I have used some Glamour Dust on her wings, leotard and tights to give her a bit of bling and the sentiment was something I made myself.
I always try to use the same layout on the inside of the card as that of the outside like this:
I hope you like my card and I would like to thank Copic Marker Europe for having me as a guest designer - I am still pinching myself!
Enjoy the rest of your day.
Toodle Pip!
