Six to a Dozen (or More) Ways to Color Dogs


 Hey friends, today I've got another critter coloring video. Since I showed you six to a dozen (or more) ways to color cats last time, I thought it was only fair that I did dogs next. It was a little bit trickier to figure out how to do this video, since cats pretty much come in the same shape and size, but dogs definitely do not. But the one time in a dog's life when they do look more similar is when they are puppies, so I've got six to a dozen examples of how you can color your dogs, which ultimately you can mix and match with different colors and patterns to create endless possibilities. I'm illustrating these using a dog from the Lawn Fawn Furry and Bright stamp set, stamped in Jet Black Ink on Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth White Cardstock. I really hope that you find this video helpful for your own card making designs! You can check it out HERE on my YouTube channel.

I'll show you six different patterns to use on your feline friends and how to modify those with six additional examples, which will ultimately give you endless possibilities with just a little variation. The image I'm using is from the Hello Bluebird Nine Lives stamp set, and as always I am coloring with my Copic markers on Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock. The images were stamped in Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink. I really hope you enjoy the video and find it helpful for your own card making! Have a wonderful day!

My Copic Favorites: Jungle & Safari Critters Part 1


Hey friends, welcome back! Today I've got another installment in my Copic Favorites Series, where I share my favorite color combos for different kinds of images. This time I'm doing Jungle and Safari Critters, using the Avery Elle stamp set, A Head Above. I will have all the color combos shown in the video tutorial, so check that out if you're interested in what my personal favorites are. After I colored the images, I trimmed them out with the matching dies.


To assemble the card, I die cut some Simple Stories Birthday Blast 6x8 patterned paper with the Sunny Studio Slimline Scalloped Frame and Slimline Basic Borders. I die cut some white cardstock with the scalloped frame and mounted it all to a Lawn Fawn Blue Jay slimline card base. Then I adhered my images with liquid glue, and finished it off with a Speech Bubbles sentiment and a bit of Stardust Stickles.


I also finished off the inside, which you can check out in the video as well. I hope you enjoy it! If you do, please consider hitting that like button and subscribing to my channel. It helps more than you know! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

My Copic Favorites Series - Part 2: Rainbow and Basic Color Recommendations


Today I'm happy to bring you Part 2 of my Copic Favorites Series! While Part 1 was geared more toward Copic users in general, this video is for card makers more specifically. I talk about what inks are best to use with Copic coloring, how your work surface can affect your coloring results, and which three group blends of markers I recommend getting first when you are building up your collection. I chose markers in a rainbow of colors, as well as a few basic neutrals, so you can pick and choose which families suit the kind of images you want to be able to color most.


The video is long, since there was a lot of ground to cover, so at the end of this post, you will find a complete list of the markers I mention in the video. I really hope you find it helpful and informative! If you do, please hit that like button on YouTube and subscribe to my channel!
