Joy!



Hi!  I had a fun day and actually finished two cards, what do you know?!  lol  I tried something different with coloring the skin on this one.  I used Copic marker E00 as a base (it gives it the effect like foundation type liquid make-up we use) then I added the shading colors with my pencils on top of that (hmm...now that sounds like bare minerals! lol).  All my embellishments on here are from the same holiday (All Is Bright)My Minds Eye paper pad that used for the base and frame .  The lace cut outs are from Doohickey dies and I finished it off with ribbon, pearls, and some machine stitching.  Once again, thanks for stopping by!  :)

  17. I love your writing on your blog. I use Bare Minerals, and wish I could look like your Tilda's complexion. :) Love your coloring. You use pencils...do you use gamsol or something to get the colors to blend the way you do? Hugs, Gail
