I used the CBC challenge blog for this card. I'm still working on my card for the first challenge, but I at least finished the card for this one :) I used a digi stamp from Nin'a blog. This was the first time I used copics to color a flower. In fact, this may be the first time I EVER colored a flower (and have that flower be the main focus of the card). For the background on both the flower piece and the quote, all I did was color it a soild color and then went over it with the colorless blender pen in circles. I really like the effect it produced. It wasn't near as hard as I thought though. (Which is one reason why I LOVE my copics - they make my coloring look good!)
In the up-close picture, you can see just a hint of a shadow. The reason for the pop up flower is that I didn't like the outline I gave it at first so I just cut it out. Then I reprinted the flower just slightly larger, colored it with the dark pink and green and then went over the whole thing with a gray to produce a shadow. I do want to point out that I didn't color the whole flower, just the edges as the rest you wouldn't be able to see unless someone took it apart. No sense in wasting ink right ;)
