Practicing with Copics

Just a quick post to share a couple of cards I made and colored with Copics. The Daisy image is from Magenta, and the Sunflowers from Our Daily Bread.

I'm so happy I found some time to just play today! Susan's challenge this week "to use an egg or eggs on your one-layer card" got my mojo pumping. I pulled out this little used stamp from Magenta and colored it with Copics. Do you notice anything different in my coloring? I've been reading Marianne Walker's book "Shadows & Shading" and one of the things I've taken away from it is that there should be more contrast between the lightest and darkest areas of your image. So I tried to use a little more of the darkest and lightest

colors. I can see a difference, but I'm not sure the pictures pick it up. I added a little bling with my Spica clear glitter pen, and some "grass" with a few flicks of a Copic. I wish now I had masked the eggs and used a grass stamp, but oh well.

Thanks for the visit today.

Hugs,

Colleen
