Stella Valentine Card

Hi all! Wanda here. This is my card of the week here on the iCopic Blog! You can buy the Stella stamp right here too! Check it out - lots of good stuff...and did you know that there are new Copic colors coming out soon? EEEK! I cannot wait...seriously! Hope you like my little Paris Stella Valentine!

I thought her hair needed to be a pretty chestnut brown... I started with my E57 Copic Marker and left my white space for the shiny bits. Don't laugh at me...I had the best intentions of taking photos as I went along...but I just got carried away and kept coloring! Sorry about that! You get the idea though.

Her hair was finished off with E59 and E53. The "white" shiny part is actually a very light beige. You can leave that white too- just preference. Her dress is colored with the rosy shades of RV32 and RV34.

Here is a close up of the finished coloring. Her face is E00, E000 and RV10 which is my go-to color scheme for skin and faces. She's so adorable!

I finished the card with chocolate brown around the outer edge and brown ink to pick up the color of her hair and provide some contrast to all that pink. I stamped the swirl onto the patterned paper because I just thought it needed to look more French??!! Does that make sense?
