It's been a week since I've posted a card but I wanted to share my very first card I've done using Copic Markers! I took a class at Scrapper's Edge a couple of weeks ago and my collection of markers is quite small (eleven to be exact, counting the blending pen), that's how new I am!! I don't quite have the hang of it yet. But I'm practicing and learning by watching a lot of tutorials online.
But I just love this little summer image of Tilda (Magnolia), I've used My Minds Eye DP (Pretty Please) and Bazzill cardstock, Martha Stewart border punch (picket fence, which I laced with yellow ribbon) and I rounded each corner with my every trustworthy corner punch from EK Success. I paper pieced one of the yellow flowers and added a button. I also blended Antique Linen Distress ink around the white of the cardstock so it wouldn't be so stark white.
My second piece of MME DP I cut out with the Spellbinders,
Nestabilities Label One with my Cuttlebug
Copic Pens:B12,E00,E33,E37,YG11,YG67,R20,R29,R32,W1.
Prismacolor pencil, Deco Yellow
So all of you Copic experts don't be too hard on me!! This is my first completed image I've put together for a card! I've been practicing a bit and not to make excuses (as I make an excuse... lol) I only have 11 markers, for crying out loud!!
Check back and I hope to have this weeks challenges from Christian Paper Crafts posted, I'm running just a few days behind!! oops!!
This is just precious!

ReplyDeleteHey Natalie...just found your blog :) Your card turned out super cute, and I'm envious of your copic marker skills....i'm still completely clueless in that department!
ReplyDeleteHi Natalie, your card came out great!! Amazing coloring and with only 11 markers, I couldn't have pulled that off. Keep going with those copics you are a natural.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you have acquired Copics. I am sure you are hooked! Putting your ribbon through the fence is a perfect touch. Tilda is just the cutest. Have a great Sabbath!
