Let’s take a look at the Gingerbread I colored up! Again several of you have seen these but I hope they continue to inspire! First a peek at the Copics and close ups!

As a side note these were CHALLENGING images to do with the no line technique. So if you are intimidated stick with Wicked Black Ink and use black lines to start. I added both of mine onto tags after I fussy cut them out.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you continue hopping through all the inspiration today!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

So you still get a variety but you already have a plan for the week and a grocery list in mind. ALL GOOD! Here is what I created:

I love how they turned out and I could make several at once so I have more ready to go when we roll over to Winter!A few doodles with black and white markers and wa-la! Thanks for the quick stop today!

Today I have two cards to share! The first is using the Puffin & Pals set I could not resist creating a second card so I could color up one of these little puffins with my Copics. Here are the colors I used:

Super fun adding those bright colors to the beak. Y’s and YR’s are on the beak and a little on the eye, the C’s are the rest of the puffin, BV’s are the snow and ice and the B000 is the sky. Here is a look at the coloring:

You can see I used the light pink ink to do a little no-line Copic coloring. Then I added some fun patterned papers to create layers. I pulled a few sequins and a snowflake charm from this month’s add on kit for finishing touches.

Before I send you off to the next blog I wanted to give you a few peeks at the card I created with this month’s bonus stamp. I shared this on Instagram earlier, but here are the colors I used and a closer look.

Very simple no-line coloring, this is a great image to practice this skill. I used the BV’s on the seal as well as the snow and ice. The C3 was added into the cast shadow to give some separation between the seal and ground. . The E04 is on the little heart nose and the BG000 is the sky. For the finished card I added another of the snowflake charms and a few sequins from the add on kit this month. If you have not tried one of the add on kits yet this month is one that I would highly recommend!

As always thank you so very much for stopping by. I would love for you to sign up for my newsletter over on the right hand side of my blog. I have a new online Copic coloring class in the works and lots of fun news coming out in the next few weeks so would love to be able to share it with you directly.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
