Birdies On Corn

Hi Peeps! Here's some other sort of "peeps" ha! This is "Birdies on Corn" , a rubber image I did for Whimsy a little while ago.  I'm making a card for someone who has two little budgies just like these guys, so I think he'll like the card.  I used the sentiment from my "Happy Bird-day" set, and the balloon from my "Hay Horsey!" set.  I just stamped the balloon multiple times and fussy cut them, and glued them on in that configuration. The cute paper is from Whimsy, designed by Tracy, from her "Soft Spring Greens" set. She has the most beautiful papers, you really ought to go see them at the Whimsy Store!
I coloured the image with Copics. I do apologize that I don't have a complete colour list today.  I know I used a lot of YG's and of course Y's, and a bit of blue and YR's on this card.  And even some Greens. But I don't have the list anymore.  
God bless you guys, thanks for coming by today!

Birdie Friend

Hi Peeps! Here is a newly released rubber image, "Birdie Friend" , 
fresh off the press at Whimsy today! 
I spent a long time colouring this one with Copics! Here is your colour list: 
Hair: E40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 47
Skin: E000, 00, 01, 11 and V91 and 93 with R30 for her blush.
Overalls: R81, 83, 85, V91, 93, 95 with some blender for highlights, and RV02 on the heart and button
Ribbon: RV02, 10, V91, 93, 95
Flowers: R81, 83, 85, 56, stems and leaves: YG03, 06, 25, 67
Grass: YG61, 17, 67, 99, G82, 94, BG96
Birdie: B52, B000, BG72, R30, RV42, V93
White blouse: V91, 93, B0000
Background: I used a lot of colour layering for the background.  I started with YG61.  I found it too dark and too green, and so I put several layers of RV0000 over top, as well as a final coat of the blender 0. Adding the red violet over the green greyed it down a bit, which is what I wanted. 
I lucked out with the hair - my E44 tip is so worn that it comes to a nice sharp point, and by barely touching it to the paper, I was able to get these tiny hair lines.  Yay for old markers! lol
I'm giving you a super big close up so you can see all the colour details! 
The gorgeous papers are from Tracy's set at Whimsy, "Softly Spring".  I can't get over how gorgeous her papers are.  If you haven't seen them, you have to go to Whimsy to check them out.  They are all quite stunning. 
Sentiment is from their digital set, "Vintage Sentiments". 
Thanks for stopping by today!

Don't Laugh

Hi Peeps! Here is another newly released digi from Whimsy (well, re-released!) and he is called, "Don't Laugh".  Such a proud kitty! lol He just loves a party, can't you tell? lol
I coloured him with the following Copics:
YR13, 24, 27, E99, 37, 50, N1, 2, BV20,  R30(ears)
Yarn is BG23 plus B21 - I think another colour for shading too, but I forget what.
Some Prismacolour Marker, "Cream" also in the white areas
I used the hat from "Gift Horse", a rubber image, and fussy cut it out before pasting it on.
The gorgeous papers are from "Pretty Pastel" papers, and "Butterfly Breeze 1" papers.  I just adore the papers that Tracy of Whimsy Stamps designs.  I don't need to go out and get any other paper with her gorgeous array to choose from!
She also did the hilarious sentiment you see to go with this image.  It is found in the "Various Occasions" sentiment pack.  It is such a great variety of sentiments, go check it out!
