Nutty for You!!

Hiya friends & Happy Monday to ya!! We're off to another busy week here in VA, but at least the weather is supposed to be beautiful all week long. My son has a chorus concert at our mall today after school and he's excited about performing--he really loves chorus but says he's not going to do it next year in middle school. He wants to take guitar lessons instead, hee hee, at least its not the drums :o)!! I had my Copic Class yesterday which was fun & went well me thinks--we really focused on coloring with the copics & different techniques with them & the Colorless blender & also made 2 cards. If you're interested in taking a Copic Class with me, I have one coming up on June 14th (1-4 pm)--just email and let me know!!

This card today is one we made in my Copics Class yesterday--lots of coloring techniques on this image & lots of fun products too! I love to introduce people to new & fun products that you can use on your cards to bring them up a notch!! So this lil' cutie is another new stamp from Victoria Case for SCACD and she's called "Nuts for You"! Isn't that squirrel the cutest! The image is colored with Copics and then we added flower soft (sunshine yellow) to the flowers and diamond stickles to her sandals & hairbands. That yummy dp is from My Minds Eye and I love the cheerful colors of it.

We also used diamond glaze on her eyes for a nice, realistic shine & the flower centers are done with Smooch metallic paint in Siren. Her hair was done with E35, YR23 & Y23 (this bundle of Copics available HERE). And to finish it off I used one of the sentiments from the "Susanaments" set. Just a fun cheerful card!

Alrighty I'm off to get some work done and I'm shooting some more Copic videos for you (yay) including one on fun techniques you can do with your Colorless Blender! Have a fabulous day!

    I would LOVE to take a class from you! If you ever decide to move to So. California, let me know! That probably isn't going to happen, so, in the meantime I will keep watching your wonderful videos. I avoided buying Copics for such a long time, but, once I watched your videos I was hooked and now own over 100 of them.(and want more!)

    Wow! You coloring is really amazing! Fab shading & highlighting - really great techniques esp on her hair. That wasn't a reg copic class you just took, right? Was it a specialty class?
    Oh yes and of course your card is absolutely adorable! :o)

    Suzanne, beautiful card. Cute image. I love the colouring here. And the diamond glaze on the eyes, what a very nice touch. You keep showing us new things to do. Thanks. Can't wait for your tut on the colourless blender.
