Hey Hey! welcome back! I am playing with one of the images from the Forest Friends stamp set for this post. A few of you will have seen this card before at the spring retreat. Here is a close up of the little critters colored up with my Copics.
Here is a look at the background I created. I lightly sketched in pencil and then colored with my Copics.
Here is a look at the finished card. I am contemplating pulling the flowers off and finishing the lower right corner in a different way. Needs a couple buttons and maybe some twine 😉.
Thanks for stopping by as always! Make sure to check out the rest of the DT for all the lovely inspiration!
Marvelous Monday to you all! Wanted to share with you two of the newest image collections from Ann Corbiere-Scott Designs. The first is one of the newer additions to the Ann Corbiere-Scott digitals.
Here are the Copic Colors I used as well as a closer look of the blending!
Next is a new set that is in conjunction with Unity Stamp Co.
And here are the Copic colors as well as a close up. I did add a BV20 the background to get the modeled look you see in the final image above.
I have created videos of coloring both of the images and I am editing the two into a single viewing session. It should be live on the Copic In The Craft Room YouTube channel in a couple weeks, I will post here when live. Thank you as always for stopping by today!
Happy Monday to you. Bringing you some beauty to brighten the start of your day. Ann Corbiere-Scott continues to design stunning art that is just asking you to pull out your favorite mediums and get colorful.
This particular image is a newer addition to her shop. This one is called Grandma Chickie.
Copics were what jumped out of my bag for this one, but I am planning on widening my bag of tricks this year so keep watching for some color play time!
Not a lot to share today, just a smile! Thanks for stopping by!

I colored up this sweet girl! Copic colors of course.
I kept it simple background wise a cloud filled sky and grassy hill. And I found two fun patterned papers and a little lace and twine to tie it all together.
I was so torn between all three of the images in this set tough! I know I will be using the other two shortly.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I will be sharing more of the January release Saturday, Sunday and next Wednesday on Instagram. The link below will get you hooked up with the other Design Team members sharing their creativity today!
Rubbernecker Stamps has more slimline stamps and I want to make sure you see them all! Today I have a quick run through of the Copic Colors I used on the Christmas and the Birthday Slimline stamps. I think you will love both of these. Let’s start with the Christmas stamp.
Work through the full image with one color family at a time. You will find other small areas to come back to with each color group at the end, but this system helps me keep a more complex image like this balanced.
The darker red Copic group I used for this image consists of 3 reds that I used from dark too light. R59, R29, R24
The lighter red group I used consists of 2 reds and the Colorless Blender. R20, R21, 0
The yellow/gold group also uses the Colorless Blender with 3 yellows. Y28, Y21, Y00, 0
On both the lighter and darker green areas I used a combination of blue green and green colors to get the evergreen feel to the image.
For the lighter green areas I used a blue green and green as well as the Colorless Blender. BG70, G40, 0
The darker green areas use 2 blue greens and 3 greens. BG70, G40, BG72, G43, G46
The white areas use a light blue violet and the Colorless Blender. BV20, 0
The background areas are filled in with a dark blue. B39
There are a few light brown areas including the cookie edges and twine, these areas got two light earth tones. E50, E53
Then I colored up the Birthday Slimline. I used the same technique working through the entire images one color family at a time. Some I colored light to dark and others dark to light. I will list them in the order that I used them. I also switched gears to bright primary and secondary colors for this image.
Starting with the reds I used a very common 3 color natural blending group for the red sections. R29, R24, R22
I used a set of 3 yellow reds for the orange sections that I colored. YR09, YR07, YR04
The bright yellow sections I kept simple with two yellow Copics. Y19, Y13
I wanted the greens to stay bright and cheery so I used 3 yellow greens. YG09, YG03, YG01
Bright blue sections have a group of 3 blues. B28, B24, B21
I kept the purple sections lighter with two lighter violets. I also used the lighter color and the Colorless Blender in the white areas. V04, V01, 0
I used a light blue and the Colorless Blender in all the background sections to keep this image bright and cheerful. B01, 0
Thank you as always for stopping by and checking out what I am up to! Below you will find links to the Rubbernecker Stamp site where you can find all the RN products I used on the two card fronts above.
