Happy Tuesday! Posting an ATC I just finished…late Spring, I’ll call it! lol See the Tim Holtz filmstrip ribbon up in the corner…cool and the tiny staples holding it are from the Tim Holtz tiny attacher. The butterfly (colored with Copic Sketch Markers) and Spring and flowers words are from Hero Arts….the tulips are a digital image colored with Copic Sketch Markers. The green and black gems are from Hero Arts. The border is from the Sandylion Borders 2 clear set.

February 15, 2010August 6, 2013 Pam Sparks15 Comments

Good Mornin’ and time for a new Copic Creations Challenge, coloring your embellishments with Copic markers.

Our images and sponsor this time is DZ Doodles Digi images. Play along for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate from DZ Doodles and FOUR copic sketch markers from 7KidsCollegeFund.com.

I colored paper roses, small and medium from 7KidsCollegeFund.com with copic marker E07 to match the pattern paper. I punched leaves with the Martha Stewart branch punch and a Birch leaf punch out of white card-stock and colored them with copic markers, YG 93, 95, 97, 99. The ribbon is from Basic Grey. The crackle stamp is from Magenta…I inked with antique linen distress ink to stamp it multiple times, same ink and ink blending tool to antique the edges. Stampin up and Prism card-stocks for matting.

I cut all the paper layers with my Tonic Trimmer, can’t stamp without it! The cross is printed on Neenah Classic Crest Super-smooth 80# card-stock and colored with the following copic markers….

nails – W1, 2, 3, 5, 7, C1, E3, 19
crown – E43, 44, 47
sky – B0000, 000

Play along with us – can’t wait to see what you creative stampers come up with!!!

***More Great NEWS ***Tab is busy adding new products all the time! The latest update is the new Ultra Fine Flower Soft! Check out the Flower soft, Moments in Time stamps too!

Now for a couple Valentine ATC’s…

I stamped this Little Sleuth from High Hopes stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored him with copic sketch markers. I stamped on eclipse tape and cut it out inside the lines to mask him and stamp the Map stamp from Toybox for the background. Explore your World stamp is from Printworks. I punched little red hearts for one and used K&Co puffy heart stickers on the other. I put stickles glitter glue on both sets of hearts…

Appreciate you stopping and reading this long post! eek! sorry…but hopefully I answered any questions you’ve thought of! lol
