Well, ALOHA! I know, I know, it has been over a month since my last post, but there have been SO many things going on. I've been working on another lauhala hat (pictures when it's finished!), my husband and I went to some WCS dance workshops in Arizona and another card (today's post!). I've been wanting to color this image for my sister's birthday card, as she used to have Yorkies. But, I was also afraid I would mess it up because it requires those small, tiny flicks with a copic marker and I have not mastered those yet - they come out in all different sizes, usually tooooo big. But, my sister's birthday is getting pretty close, so I HAD to bite the bullet and start coloring. This image was from Kit and Clowder's February 2019 monthly pencils class, so the first thing I had to do was convert the pencil colors she used to copic marker colors. Then I carefully watched her videos (yes, the pencil coloring videos) and kept the picture of her coloring next to mine as I slowly got started. I finally finished and put the card together, and I can say that I am pretty happy with it! My sister's favorite colors are blue and green, so I tried to keep that color scheme going. Take a look and let me know what you think!
I didn't use too many embellishments; three sequins which I filled with stickles and a double-sided ribbon that I hand-sewed a stitch and gathered and then made a double bow with the rest of the ribbon.
Have a wonderful day!
