Do you really enjoying coloring....blending, making your project pop? I do!! I really enjoying coloring with Copic Markers. My favorite features of Copics are the way they blend AND the way you can erase when you make a "le boo boo!" The Pen Addict is having a giveaway. I'm participating because I just can not have enough Copic Markers! I want at least one in every color! Coloring is one my favorite ways to express myself and releave stress. Given the way my day job has been going lately, if I win the giveaway, those markers will throughly be used! :o)
- Lightly ran embossing static pouch over white card stock
- Stamped images using black ink
- Sprinkled embossing powder over the images, shook off access, and then heat set
- Colored images with markers starting with the smallest areas first then filling in color in the largest area. I always start with my lightest color, coloring in small circles, then add the darker color and come back with the lighter color to blend. I go back and forth, light...dark...light...until I get the blended look I want.
- Cut out the the tea pot using a circle die cut. Cut out the tea bad and tag along embossed line and sent through sticker maker.
- Cut out two scalloped layers
- Assembled card, drawing the tea string between the tea bag and label

Trena,
Thank you for all of the fun comments on my blog. Originally, I set it up for my family to keep in touch and let them know some of the things I was doing. They hardly ever read it without a personal invitation and lots of begging. Then you went way back and read lots of previous posts. Thank you for the uplifting messages.
I am also in Naperville, near 95th St. off of Naper/Plainfield. Good to meet you and hope to see you at some of the meet-ups.
