Pencil Power with Stamp AnnieThing

Hello Stamp AnnieThing fans I have another back to school cared to share today. I love the August release and needed to create one more card featuring these great stamps. Besides I didn’t break out any of the pre-printed die cuts at the start of the month and they are so fun and easy to color I wanted pull some out!

I used the Madison-Be All Kinds of Happy stamp and the Back to School Decorative Die Cuts and colored them all up with LOTS of Copic markers:

Here is a close up of the adorable Madison and her back pack from the die cut set. I cut a slit along the edge of the backpack so it would look like she is carrying her bag:

And here are a couple views of the completed card!

As usual I keep it really simple a few layers of fun patterned paper with my colored elements and done!

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure to keep watching the store for all sorts of fun new images and products! We have a release right around the corner and you are going to love it!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

I really wanted to color as many of the images in this set as possible! They are so much fun and just screaming for color! So I started with this little guy and his marshmallow! I focused in on him and just the fire coloring him in no line coloring. Here are the colors for his skin and hair:
 
 
And here are the colors for his clothes, I did add a little opaque white on the moon on his shirt and some gold on the stars:
 
 
Then I colored up the little fire:
 
 
Pulled it all together using the new die cut for a silhouette of mountains:
 
 
Then more coloring! I layered a few of the stamps masking as I worked from the front to the back of the scene. Then colored the entire card front:
 
 
Once I had the card colored with all those Copics I used a charcoal pencil, white opaque pen, Wink of Stella and Stickles, for effects of stars and smoke:
 
 
Here is a look at the full image/card:
 
 
There are so many options with this set! I know it will be coming back out of my stamp baskets often!!

Stamp AnnieThing Inspiration and Copic Wavy Hair

Hello Stamp AnnieThing fans and friends! Michelle Houghton here sharing a little SAT inspiration and another Copic coloring tutorial with the fabulous SAT stamps!

I recently got a request for a Copic tutorial on coloring wavy hair. Low and behold there are several SAT stamps that have beautiful long wavy hair so perfect! I chose a recent release Chloe – Pehea “Oer to share some tips and tricks.

I have a video in a link at the bottom of the post with a full tutorial if you would like to see the coloring in action, but here is a peak at what I do with wavy hair.

I color wavy hair in one of three ways so here is the same image colored with the same 4 colors 3 different ways:

1 – Loose – This quick and easy style shows the curl, but does not follow the artist’s lines so is simple and easy.

2 – From inside to outside – On this image each section is colored darker in toward the figure and lighter as you move out away from Chloe.

3 – Each wave – On the third image I worked into each individual wave. Where hair section dips inward it gets darker and as it curves away it gets lighter. This technique takes the longest, but also has some of the most striking results.

 Here is a look at all three techniques side by side:

I decided to finish one up and get her on a card and here are the results and a closer look at the hair and skin:

Here is a direct link to see all the hair coloring!

For today’s release I decided to color the image in neutral gray Copics only. So N1, N3, N5, N7, N9 are all that I used. Then I needed color to set him up so I used the great new die set and bright cardstock to create the burst behind him and used a FYG2 Copic in my air brush system to create the underlying burst.
 
 
Closer peek of the new image!
