This is a Penny Black Hedgie image sent to me by the very generous Tammy Buck! I colored it with my Copics but was unhappy with how dark the hedgie was so I went over it many times with my Colorless Blender to push the color out to the fur and lighten up the face and belly. For a large area like that it tends to get a bit blotchy, so I am not really happy with that. But I kept at it until it was acceptable. Again I outlined with the Cool Shadow and used the blender to soften it...it's a bit more subtle on this image. I used my Quickie Glue pen and some very fine glitter to add a little sparkle which you can see in the close up below.
The white panel is embossed with the Swiss Dot Cuttlebug folder and the floral paper is from Making Memories Chloe's Closet. The blue cardstock and ribbon are both Spring Rain from PTI. And....I used my brand new Bow Easy to make those perfect little bows! I won it from Jenny of One Krafty Kat last week. I watched the video tutorial (several times actually!) to learn how to make a bow. I could never have figured it out from the printed directions! Now that I know how to use it (it's quite easy) I am anxious to make more bows! You can find the tutorial here, thanks Jerri!!
It's another Color Throwdown tomorrow...and the colors are gorgeous! Join us and play!
