Copic Card with a Sketch

Hello Copic and crafty friends and family! I have a little Stamp AnnieThing inspiration for you today. 

I love having someone else give me the idea for the design work on my card. I don’t have to sit there and scratch my head over a lot of decisions. When someone maps it out for me I can do the fun part, pick a stamp, color, pick pretty paper to match and stick it all together. The fun part of making!

This week’s Theme Week Challenge #34 is using a sketch. 

I chose my image and pick a group of very simple color combinations to allow me to work fairly quickly:

I colored up the sweet Kelly – Reading Book:

And added her to the card base I designed using this weeks sketch as a road map!

This card came together super fast and that always feels great!

Make sure to play along and submit your version of the sketch ?

Thank you for stopping by today, more Stamp AnnieThing inspiration to come so keep stopping by.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Yay It is Friday! Thanks for stopping by one more time! I am teaching a Copic College today in Washington, IL, but set this up to make sure you got the last peek of the SAT October release! I took a few more steps on this card and used these super fun stencils to create a full background scene for the stamp. 
In hind site I would have moved the cats to the right a little further right and up, but live and learn ?
I started by using a few of the new Stamp AnnieThing ink blocks with the cactus stencils, and creating masks for the cacti by tracing through the stencil:
 
 
Next I used my Copic ABS to create a sky and ground behind the cacti:
 
 
Picked out some Copic colors and got my cow girl and her painted horse colored up (I realized after editing the photo that I left all the Cool Grays in the bag, I did not use them on this image sorry!):
 
 
Added her into her scene:
 
 
And popped her onto a card!
 
 
Here is a closer look at our cowgirl.
 
 
Thanks for joining me this week for the October SAT release! If you have not had a chance yet check out a few of the other Stamp AnnieThing DT members, they are as usual rocking the SAT images, dies and stencils!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Welcome back! An adorable Lady bug to color up today! I know it is fall, it certainly feels like it here in Iowa but I had a hard time putting fall colors with this cutie!
 
 
Here is a look at her in super close up mode:
 
 
Back out just a bit so you can see the fun greeting. I lost it a bit when I colored the grass so I added a little opaque white so it pops back out.
 
 
And back out one more step to see the full card:
 
 
Thanks for dropping by today, hope you will take a second to check out the other SAT team members. I am inspired by them all on a regular basis!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Make Your Own “Copic” Rainbow

Hello Stamp AnnieThing friends! I have a quick splash of SAT inspiration for you today and a teaser of more to come.

I created a new card this week with one of my favorite Stamp AnnieThing stamps, Samantha – Make Your Own Rainbow. Why you might ask, with all the stamps to choose from? Well…maybe it has to do with the fact that she is holding a marker and I like to color it like a Copic! Today not only did I color her with my Copics I created a background with my (ABS) Copic air brush system.

I started with the sky and a rainbow!

Here is a peek how that turned out:

Then I pulled off the mask and colored up Sammantha!

Here is a look at how cute she is:

I added a plane card base, all that color don’t need any more details:

Then next Wednesday I will be posting a video of how I did all that colorful magic! It will be posted on the Copic In The Craft Room YouTube page.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
