Aren’t these hamsters too cute?! They are sweeter than sweet. I am playing with the hamster in the wheel today. Feels a little like my life right now ha ha! Here are some looks at what I created. Here are the Copic colors I used. I stamped the image in light pink in order to color in a no-line coloring style. The E 7’s, E50 and E 93 are on the hamster. The BV11, BV31 and Colorless Blender are the background and the gray Multiliner is what I went over the wheel with.

Here is a close look at the Copic coloring:

I added this cutie onto a card under a window and added some sparkle from this month’s add on package and a few more do-dads!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

I played with this fun stamp set during the last virtual retreat but decided to color another of the images in the set as well as add a personal touch to it! I added a braid to the dragon rider and recorded the whole thing so you can watch if you like! First here is a closer look at the image and the Copic coloring as well as the added hair braid:

And here is a look at the card I completed. I did a simple inky background with Copic refill ink on photo paper.

Lastly how about a link to the video tutorial?! It is all in real time so between the drawing and the coloring it is a longer video but hope you might have a chance to watch a few moments! Thank you for stopping by!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Gnome Lineup from Rubbernecker

I have an adorable lineup of gnomes from Rubbernecker all in a row that will fit on a slimline card when I have the time to put them on one. For today here is a more detailed break down of how I used my Copic Markers to color one and then the Copic colors I used on the rest of them! I am trying something new with my images since there are SO MANY! You will see mini slideshows below so you will need to scroll through to see the steps! ( Slide shows did not post so sorry this is going to be LONG!

  • Base the pants with a B95
  • Use a B97 to add form bringing the darker coloring from the sides.
  • Blend the colors together using the lighter B95 to smooth out the edges of the B97.
  • Base the stripes of the hat in two light colors, I used YR12 and B60.
  • Use two darker markers to add shape to all the stripes bringing the colors in from the sides again. I used YR15 and B63.
  • Blend the colors together using the lighter markers.
  • Base the beard in a light earth tone. I used E50.
  • Use a warm gray to start creating texture on the beard. W3 is the color I started with.
  • Use a darker warm gray, I used W5 in lesser amounts, to deepen the texture on the beard.
  • Soften the flicks on the beard using the lightest earth tone, E50 in this case.
  • Two small areas to tackle next. Base the skin in a light yellow red, YR000. Then fill the shirt in with a darker yellow red, YR12.
  • Add shape to all these areas with a YR01 on the skin, and the shirt with a YR15.
  • Finish the skin by blending with the lighter YR000 and adding touches of E93. Finish the shirt by blending the colors together with the lighter YR12.
  • Finishing up this gnome with his shoes, base them in an earth tone, E23.
  • Use a darker earth tone along the bottom edge to round them, E27.
  • Blend the colors together using the lighter earth tone, E23.

Here is gnome #1 with all of his colors. In the next slide show I used similar colors for some sections of each of the gnomes so your will see the skin and shoe combos on each of the gnomes!

  • On gnome #2 use the same skin and shoe combination.
  • On gnome #2 use YR31, Y23 and Y26 on the beard.
  • On gnome #3 use the same skin and shoe combination.
  • On gnome #3 use YR31, Y23 and Y26 on the beard.
  • On gnome #4 use the same skin and shoe combination.
  • On gnome #4 use E50, W3 and W5 on the beard.
  • On gnome #5 use the same skin and shoe combination.
  • On gnome #5 use E31, E33 and E99 on the beard.

Now let’s look at the clothing on each of the gnomes.

  • Gnome #2 uses a set of blues and yellow greens, B00, B02, YG13 and YG17.
  • Gnome #3 uses yellow greens and yellows, YG13, YG17, Y35 and Y38.
  • Gnome #4 uses yellows and blues, Y02, Y06, B60 and B63.
  • Gnome #5 uses yellows and a different set of blues, Y02, Y06, B00 and B02.

I need to complete the scene and get them on a card. They are just too cute and even thought this post is long with all the steps they actually color up extremely quickly! Below you will find links to the Rubbernecker Stamps products in this post. Thank you as always for stopping by!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
