Copic Colour Challenge

The Copic Colour challenge have the following colours to work with this week.




Now I am becoming more confident in my use of Copics I decided to give it a whirl. I think something has finally clicked in my brain on how to use them. Not before time since I have some for almost a year!!

This card is for someone who wanted "simple" - eeeek!!! - I don't do simple. I used Magnolia's Alva with flower image and coloured her stocking and T shirt/vest with B02 and B39 and her flower with RV34. I've had the BP for ages and wondered what I'd bought it for and when I was ever going to use it - but it turned out perfect for the colours. I cut the image and sentiment out with Nesties labels 4 and coloured the inners with chalks (not brave enough to do this with Copics -lol). I'm actually pleased with the result and just hope the person I've made the card for likes it.


Materials
BC - White linen : DP - The Paper Company : Image - Magnolia - Alva with flowers : Copics colours - B02, B39, RV 34, W1, 2 , 3, & 5, E 50, RV10 & 100 : Sentiment - Royal Langernickel : Rest from stash
