Today is my last day off after a nice week away from work. I am spending it in my pajamas and crafting on my deck and soaking up these last few days of summer before the chaos that fall with bring.
I am playing along with the Sweet Sunday Sketch #224 with the MFT a la Mode Talk Nerdy to Me....which is apparently now retired since I can't find it in the MFT store any longer. Oh well!
I stamped the image on a note book page die cut that I created with the MFT Die-Namics 3x4 Notepad which I then trimmed a bit. I created that cool background using the Abstract Art stamp set along with red hot, lemon drop, orange fizz, sour apple, and berrylicious ink. I used the fishtail flag STAX Die-Namics to create the banner and did some faux stitching with a white gel pen.
I colored the image with copics and used some Generals pastel chalk pencils to deepen the shading.
skin - E11. E21, E00, E000, R20, R30
hair - E47, E37,E35, E53
pencil - RV13, RV11, RV10, C3, C2, C1, Y17, Y15, Y13,E43, E41, C7, C5
shirt - R59, R29, R24, R05
jeans - B99, B97, B95
Here's the sketch which I flipped:
Awesome job on your coloring! I came to your blog via pinterest looking for the information on the card that has a row of ducks on it and the sentiment is "how the duck are you?" Can you point me to the blog post this is on? Thanks!!!!
