I was asked to make some custom baby shower invitations after someone spotted one of my cards I created with the Saturated Canary's Ice Cream & Pickles image. Coloring an image 35 times was no easy task. Thankfully, I had a couple of months to chip away at it. I think I can say with confidence that I could color this image in my sleep now. ;)
I printed the invitations onto PTI white CS and mounted them onto PTI spring rain CS.
I colored the image with copics:
Skin - E11, E21, E00, E000. R20. R30
eyes - B24, B21
lips - R22, R20
hair - E35, E53, E51
shirt - B41, B45, B37
skirt - E44, E43, E41
ice cream and cone- E44, E43, R22, R20, R30
pickle - G46, G43
cherry - R29, E05
I lined the envelopes with PTI spring rain gingham pattern sheets.
Thanks for looking!

WOW! Those are some very pretty invitations & a heck of alot of work! Wonderful coloring & the envelope liners are a grand touch!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! 35 times - I am guessing you won't be coloring that image for awhile :>) Would photocopying one of the colored ones have worked?
ReplyDeleteShe wanted hand colored invitations to make them special. Photocopying would have been cheating. :)
DeleteI received one of these invitations and they are adorable! I came to check out your web site for a baby shower we are throwing for my brother and sister in law.
