Copic Countdown Card

Hello friends and family. A very quick little burst of inspiration for you today.

I created a little card for a good friend of mine to countdown days. I colored up  Stacey – #celebrate from Stamp AnnieThing and made a pocket for her to sit on top of with a slide out counter card. 

I created a video so you can see all the coloring including the wood flooring that we did a little while ago live on Facebook.

Here is a quick peek at the finished look though:

Here is the little pull out, out:

And a close up shot of Stacey, she had some prepare work done on some freckles and you can see that on the video as well:

Here is a link to the video:

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

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!

Copic Earth Tones

About 2 years ago I created a couple videos over at the Copic In The Craft Room YouTube channel that featured the Copic Earth Tones. I explained how they do not follow the normal Copic numbering system and how they can be used to create amazing color on your images. Here are links to both those videos:

There are a few more videos since these that feature the Earth tones but these are the original two, I am planning a couple more in the very near future ? They create beautiful vintage looking images.

Since then I have had multiple people request the chart that I share on the first video. Here is the challenge, if I share the chart and you print it the colors will not be accurate. AND more importantly the original chart has a copyright from Imagination International, Inc on it. SOOOO I am sharing the chart, BUT I am also sharing a blank chart that I created and you have permission from me to use. This is so you can fill out your own, on your own Copic paper, whatever your favorite is, and create an accurate Earth tone chart for yourself! You are welcome to use mine as a reference as needed where you are missing colors or helping decide which ones you might like to invest in next, but PLEASE do not print it out and believe the colors will be accurate!

Hope this is helpful! Feel free to share a link to my blog to share the chart with friends and while you’re here sign up for my newsletter up in the upper right. It will keep you informed of all my Copic College weekends and live classes.

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!
