Good evening blogger friends! The Chocolate Shoppe card is finally finished. This stamp set has an outside/inside stamps so I had to figure out how I was going to engineer this card. After a couple of failures I finally decided on this keeper. I used the Swing card which makes it easy to see both the outside and inside. I hope the scans I made will show this card.
This is got to be a record for the number of Copic markers I used for a single card but because of the stamps used, I felt that many was required to get the shading I like. You can reduce the number of markers by using 2 colors instead of 3 for shading. Just make sure that you choose the markers that give you a greater contrast for blending. Also, remember that Copic markers are translucent and you can layer to get a darker shade. I hope I haven't made this too confusing. Any questions, pro or con, please leave comments. I am no expert by any means....Thanks for looking.
