Cards using Victoria Case Image - Singing in the Rain

I recently discovered Victoria Case Images. Where had I been? Anyway, as soon as I saw them I fell in love and have been adding them one by one to my ever growing stamp collection!

I created two cards with one of my newly purchased Victoria Case images designed for SCACD.

Here is the first one:

This was for our Copic Buzz Challenge. The challenge can be found here:

Our Copic Marker technique this week was "Hair"

Now for the 2nd card:

This was using a sketch for the Victoria Case Blog Challenge.

Here was the sketch


The same copics were used for both images. On the card for Victoria Case's Blog I cut out the small flowers and colored them with the technique I showed recently on here on my blog.

Sending a hug

I haven't posted in awhile. We had to go to Rhode Island and when I returned I was so far behind in our Copic Buzz group that I had to catch up! Therefore my own personal blog was neglected!
Here is a card I made this weekend. I am working on perfecting blonde hair, and if I do say so myself it's starting to come together!



I used the new Basic Grey line - Lemonade (Brads were from that line also). I just love their new lines!
Cardstock was Bazzill -
Copics Used were as follows:
Skin - Eooo, Eoo, R20
Hair - E31, E21, YR20, Y11
Clothes - BG72, BG75 (Aqua) - R85, R83, R20 (Pinks)
Flower - Y11

Here is a picture of colors I used: Note skip the reds! I didn't use these and my batteries are dead so I can't take another picture until I run to the store!
