Dawn's Birthday Card

My sister-in-law turned the big 40 yesterday.  I decided to make her a card with alcohol markers so I could get a little practice.  The card is plain and simple, and of course a little different! (I never put things crooked on a card, but I had to for Dawn because she likes things different!)

The image is from Saturated Canary, Krista Smith, Saturated Canary LLC.  I got it with an online class I am taking from Annie's Crafts to learn how to color people using alcohol markers.  The background paper is Whisper White with the alcohol markers airbrushed on it so the paper is the same color as the outfit.  (I won a chance to purchase a discounted air compressor at the class I took in July.  I couldn't refuse.  I told my husband pretty soon I'm going to be airbrushing our walls!)

So Sorry it Has Been So Long...

...since I posted something!  I got very caught up with the end of the school year.  Then, I went on vacation the day school got out (I know you aren't feeling sorry for me for that!).  But here I am!

I am going to approach things a little differently.  In order to learn more about coloring with Stampin' Up's! new Blendabilities, I took a Copic coloring class.  Oh my goodness!  I am hooked.  Everyone that knows me knows I like to watercolor.  Well, coloring with Copics is so much fun!  The Blendabilites are wonderful (and so much more inexpensive) and great for coloring all of the flower images that Stampin' Up! sells.  However, in order to color people, you need more colors and that's what I learned with the Copics.

I just started to practice coloring people.  Stampin' Up! doesn't have a lot of images of people, so I have had to purchase a couple images elsewhere. (I feel like a traitor!)  I don't know if I can post the images on this blog because of Stampin' Up! policies, so I am going to create a board on Pinterest.  If you want to see what I have been coloring, click here!  I only have one image right now, but I will be adding!  Remember...I am just learning!
