Experiments

I've created this card for my mum especially for Mother's Day.  The image is Gladioli and can be found in my shop here.  You can get this and any of my images with 10% discount by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.

The sentiment was created at the time I printed the image.

I've used Copics to colour it with and also a black Copic liner, a black polychromos pencil and a white gel pen.

Originally I was going to use some orange DP, but thought the green made the image stand out more.  It's from Studio Light.

The experimentation was how I created the speckled background.  I got very inky my own fault but you just go with these things.

I used some Copic blender on a sponge.  Then I used a black Copic to add some colour to the sponge.  I then flicked the sponge onto the card with my nail.  I repeated it a few times with black and green Copic.  I then added a few dot of black in with my liner.

I have orange and black fingers / nails today LOL!!

Hope you like my card, thanks for visiting
