Hello everyone! Wow the week is almost over again, can't believe it .... time is flying! I managed to finish another card with one of the new Belles 'n Whistles stamps. This time "Li'l Miss Poppy"! Isn't she just cute with her basket of freshly picked flowers? I colored her with my Copics and used my new Copic airbrush system for the image background. Well not perfect but for my very first time using the airbrush system I'd say not too bad ;-) But still need looooooots of practice! This is so much fun and thanks to hubby I got a nice air compressor as well :-) So I don't have to deal with those spray cans. I have to tell you my hubby is actually the real air brush artist (he did amazing work of arts!!!) and he was so kind giving me his air compressor to use with my copic system - thank you sooo much hunny!!!!!! ILY!!!! Paperminutes has a great sketch this week created by Carola aka Schokofee and this is my entry for their challenge. If I don't s...

Copic Coloring Tutorial - Basic Hello everyone, hope you all are doing great! I was asked by a few people if I could do a tutorial about how I color my images using Copic markers. This is going to be the first tutorial, a very general one. Over time I'll like to post Copic tutorials on how I color specific parts of an image like hair, cloth, skin, etc. I would also like to mention that I am not "Copic certified" and this is just my way of coloring my images using Copic markers. I tried different techniques and papers and this is just what works best for me! Ink: I always use Memento Ink for stamping my images when coloring with copics. This is a fade resistent, fast drying, dye ink with even ink coverage and save to use with your Copics. Summer has this ink in her store, click here .
