Sweet Flying Tilda

I was touring around the blog-o-sphere and came across the Copic Marker Europe site.  Oh MY!  talk about some amazing work posted there, I took an extended tour of the blog and looked into some of the tutorials there as well. A M A Z I N G stuff. 

I was particularly taken with the tutorial about Sepia colouring so decided to try it on my little Flying Tilda. It's been ages since I've posted a Tilda card.  I also did the little dots background that I've seen being used lately, both new techniques that I'm pretty happy with.

I used the Sketch from Sketch Saturdays and colours from CR84FN and am so happy with the combination that this has created.

Copics used.

Hair, dress, wings and shoes:  E40. E42, E43, E44 Sand spica

Skin: E50, E51, E53 & E93  BV000 for shadows (still perfecting this technique!)

Entering this little cutie into the following challenges.

A Saturated Saturday - sketch that is.

Hi all, I've combined the fabulous sketch by Tracey at Sketch Saturday with the challenge at the Saturated Canary to use Doilies and came up with this card.  Love these images and colouring them is a sheer delight.

This sketch by Tracey is gorgeous and it all came together really well.  I've used a Cheery Lynne doily die in white, I'm sure I have a crochet pattern like this somewhere!

The papers are from Papermanias pink Capsule collection and I've used X-Press It card for my image which is coloured using copic markers and spica pens.

ok  here goes with the copics used.

Skin:  E50 & E51

Dress:  RV00; R81, R83; R85 & R59 plus Clear and Pink spica pens

Stockings: RV00 plus Clear and Pink spica pens

Eyes:  G02 & C1

I had so much fun colouring her in.  Oh I'm taking a beginners Copic class online with the fabulous Mandi-Lee from Copicme.  Mandi-Lee is the ONLY person in Australia who can certify Copic teachers!  Although the course I'm taking is not a certification course.  It's the basics to make sure I really know what I'm doing and get the best out of my investment in the markers. 

Mandi-Lee has an amazing talent and knowledge about these markers, just check out the links to her site....Oh My!   I hope to learn so much from her.  I think there is still time to join if you're interested.  If you join, let her know it was from my post please, we could receive a little gift for people who join in on our recommendation.  AND I do recommend it!
