Silver Fairy
What do you look for when shopping for stamps? On the one hand, I love simple images for quick cards but I'm also attracted to the pretty stamps which need colouring. When I first started stamping, I stayed away from open images stamps, but, eversince I started collecting Copic markers, I'm finding that I love a good challenge in colouring. Always happy to practise colouring, and to look forward to your feedback & suggestions, so I can further improve.
I've had this Silver Fairy stamp for several months, and this is my first attempt at colouring it. Frankly, I'm a little intimidated by the image, but I reckon this is a "passable" attempt {lol}.
The image was coloured with Copic Markers and I'm sorry I didn't write down the colours. The sentiment is from another Whimsy Stamps set Birthday Letter Seals. Here's another view, and hopefully you can see a little sparkle on the card from my Atyou Spica Clear Glitter pen.
I'm submitting this for the Whimsy Stamps Challenge this week, Pearls or Blings.
Thanks for coming by today. Have a great week!!
