All in Blue



Hi Everyone,

I have been dying for ages to colour up a Saturated Canary image by the fabulous Krista Smith and what a beauty this one is. So I took the opportunity to combine my DT card for Copic Marker Europe and Make It Crafty together.  I remember a long time ago, when I was a Simply Sassy Girl, writing on Krista's blog that I'd love to see more images with long flowing hair, and this little lady certainly fits the bill.  She came in the E-Book from Make It Crafty which the awesome Zoe has put together to show you how to achieve those defined strands of hair, definitely worth Copic enthusiasts investing in and a must have for practicing hair, and to be honest the best advice I can give anyone who is new to copics is, practice, practice and practice.

And here's my finished card. 


I also have a new camera, yayyyyyy.  I'm still practicing with that too, so any tips will be greatly welcomed.



Ingredients:-
Image by Saturated Canary available in an E-Book from Make It Crafty
Pion Papers ( love these)
Go Kreate Dies
Leaves, flourish corner and mini butterfly chipboard embellishments by Make It Crafty and coloured with prisma pencils
Marianne Design Ribbon Rose
Square Doily

Copic Markers:-
Skin: E00, E01, E11, E000
Cheeks: R20
Hair: E35, E37, E47, E49, E50
Dress: B16, B18, B39, B00, B01, B16, B18
Shadows: B63, C3

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:-
