Copic Colour Challenge #9

Great colors this week for the Copic Colour Challenge #9, but a little challenging for me. I'd been putting this off until the very last minute because I just wasn't sure what I was going to do with them! But I think I made it work with this great Whiff of Joy guardian angel stamp called Matthew. I colored him with the three challenge colors (and some others for shading). He also is **SPARKLED** up with a Sakura Clear Star pen. I put some on his wings, hair and overalls. The red dp is from SU's Washington Apple and the green circles are from their retired Jersey Shore dp. The base is Always Artichoke. I tried a few things to accessorize this card, and finally gave in to the buttons. They were the right color and I just used some orange floss to tie them up. The layout is from a Paper Makeup Stamps challenge a while ago, but I had to turn it to accommodate my image. I really like the way my image fits this way.

I hope you can play the Copic Colour Challenge this week. We'd love to see your creations with this color combo. Just link your card with Mr. Linky so we can all see it and comment. Remember, you don't have to use all the colors and you can substitute, but you must use copic markers. Hope to see you there! Thanks for stopping by!

Here Comes Henry!

Isn't this little guy just the cutest thing? I bought a bunch of stamps from 7 Kids College Fund and they just came in today. This one is called Henry Celebrating Mouse. I had to look up his name because it wasn't on the package and then I realized why I purchased him...my dad's name was Henry, so I had to have him!

I followed Katharina's sketch from the Whiff of Joy Challenges blog. It was such an easy sketch to follow and I love the results!

The dp is from DCWV called Animal Crackers. It's a very sturdy dp and the vertical circle piece is glittery. I colored Henry with copic markers and added some stickles. I just love sparkle and shine on cards and use them whenever fitting. I have a closeup of Henry below so you can see the sparkle a little better.

Well, I'm just lovin' Henry and his cute little grin! Thanks for stopping by and all your comments! Remember to stop by the Copics Colour Challenge blog on Wednesday to see challenge #3 and what the DT girls have to share! Have a great week!
