Cute Nora colored with all the Warm gray Copic Sketch Markers. I used Basic Grey’s Scarlet Letter 6×6 pattern paper pad, EK Success wide staples and small retro flower punch, Martha Stewart branch border punch, black pearls and the sentiment is from a CC Designs. Almost forgot the scenery again! It’s a CC Designs set.
I started out coloring pretty much everything, even the sky with W00, then added in each color up to W9 and then retraced my steps back down from W9 to W00! I have a couple other cards on my blog colored like this too… Here and Here. I love this “style” of coloring.
I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday…
Color Me Copic blog is having their first challenge with black and white coloring. There is even a tutorial…(although she colors different than I do…I color light to dark and retrace my steps and don’t use the blender pen for coloring)…really cute cards…so fun to see what others are doing to get a similar look!
Thanks for stopping in! ttul!
What a great card love the coloring and the DP just a perfect match !

Beautiful card! Love your coloring!!
Hello Pam, Could not help smiling when I saw your card… Maybe cute Nora is thinking about my Rose Edwin! It’s beautiful, your coloring with copic is awsome. You see, I was afraid I would not be able to give the spirit I felt with my copics, eventhough I love this medium, sometimes I feel ackward. Such a great take at the sketch, and the dp is gorgeous, gives that romantic touch to cute Nora’s mood.
Very beautiful card.
