I made this card for my sweet little grand-niece and it fits Sharon Johnson's (No Time To Stamp) Friday challenge - Make It Flat.
It's my first time using Copics! I only have a half dozen so I just colored the little girl's skin with the Copics. Lots to learn The rest is colored with Markers by Staedtler, Mars Graffic 3000's and Tombows. The background of the picture is colored with Sargent Art Chalks. After it was done it was sealed with a fixative to keep the chalk from smudging. I distressed the edges of the outer oval. The ovals were cut and embossed. I hope you like it and thanks for looking.

Wow, is this image ever precious, and you've colored her with copics! and it's your first time! Who do I call about getting your credentialled as an experienced copics colorer? This is fabulous; the whole card is just one excercise in everything sweet!
