Big Big Love! They are so accessible and feed my need for instant gratification. Oh and one of the best parts.... I can store, catalog and browse digital images much more easily than I can store traditional cling/wood mount stamps. Plus - added bonus, my "hoarding" tendencies are less obvious. *nervous laugh*... <br />
<div>
<br />
I love coloring people images! Today's image is from www.makeitcrafty.com. It's called "<a href="http://www.makeitcrafty.com/penny-scott-kissing-digi-stamp.html" target="_blank">Penny & Scott Kissing</a>". I adore this image. It gives me those warm-fuzzy romantic feelings. They both look so passionate and I can just image this kiss as a "Hello - I've missed you" kiss. I read too many sappy romance novels. haha. oh well.... we all have our guilty pleasures. :) <br />
<br />
<br />
I printed this image onto Neenah Exact Index 110lb card stock. I also flipped the image so he guy was on the left, and the girl on the right. I printed 4 images on a single piece of card stock, so I could visualize the size and spacing on an A2 size card, while maximizing my materials. Did I mention that I love the flexibility of digital stamps?<br />
<br />
<em>Tangent: </em>I was able to cut down the 8 1/2 x 11 piece of card stock into quarters immedately and add to my stack of pre-printed digital images. This way I could grab-and-go whenever I wanted to color... It's way easier to throw a gallon ziplock bag of my favorite copic markers and a stack of pre-stamped quarter sheets into my purse, than it is to cart around full sheets of paper and my entire collection of markers (current count 311!!) <br />

<strong><u>HexChart</u></strong><br />
Before I start explaining what I did - I should explain how I picked my colors. My current favorite skin color combo is E50, E53, BV00 and R20. However, I need to change the nib on my E53 marker - so I had to come up with a back up plan... To pick out my colors, I referred to my handy-dandy HexChart. I looked for a color that was close to E53 and tested a few out on a piece of scratch paper by blending it with E50 and BV00. I tried substituting E31, E21 and E11. I really liked how E11 blended over the BV00 so that's what I went with. I also looked at R20 and decided it wasn't quite right.... I wanted something a touch brighter. Why? Who knows! I was just floating where the Copic Groove was taking me... I thought RV10 looked nice, so that's the first one I picked-up and tested on my sample. I was happy with the brightness of the color and felt like it would give a nice romantic blush on the skin tones I had selected. So that's how I started...<br />
<br />
<u><strong>Skin & Hair:</strong></u><br />
<em>Skin:</em> I started with a base of E50, and then I <u>lightly</u> drew in the shadows with BV00 with the very tip of the brush tip. I drew in the shadows at the hairline, eye sockets/brow bone, jawline, the fingers closest to the ground, and wherever I imagined a gap between fabric and the skin... When I first drew in the shadows it really looked like my image was a victim of domestic violence: black eyes, bruises peaking from the hairline, roughed up knuckles... and then I remembered what Sandy Allnock says about her coloring - it usually looks like a "hot mess" in the beginning, but it works out in the end. :)<br />
<br />
After I laid down the shadows in the skin with BV00, I went over the purple with the E11 marker. THEN, I went back with the E50 to blend the lines. I did go back with E11 a few times to cover a stubborn spot of BV00, and then blended it again with E50. And what do you know! Sandy was right. It all worked out. :) I then put a little flush into their cheeks. I used RV10 to get a nice rosy flush in the girl's cheeks, and then blended out with E50. I couldn't bring myself to use RV10 on the guy's face though. It was too pink. I wanted to show a flush of excitement - but I didn't want him to look like he was wearing make-up. So! I took out my handy-dandy HexChart again and browsed for a subtle "masculine flush" that was closer to the flesh tones I was working with. And TA-DA! YR01 was right next to E11 on the HexChart. I was pretty sure this was the shade I wanted to use. However, before I committed myself, I took YR01 for a test drive on the first sample I used to pick out my colors. My sample was a success - so I lightly applied the YR01 with a side swipe of the brush nib to where I imagined the guy's cheekbone would be. Flicking with the side of the brush nib produced a softer smudge of color than if I had tried to use the tip of the brush tip. This way, I didn't have to do much blending to get a look that I liked. <br />
<br />
<em>Hair:</em> I started with the girl hair first. Because, as a girl, I think that's the most fun to color. I colored the hair with the same E50 base I used on the skin. I then picked up E55, a nice "light camel" to add in some lowlights/shadows, whatever you want to call them. I used the very very very tip of the brush nib to flick in strand detail. (I think this is why I gravitated towards this image, because it would be a greate opportunity to practice coloring hair)<br />
<br />
On the guy's hair, I wanted a little variety, so I covered the base with E35. I didn't want them to look like twins - b/c that would be gross. I then, with a heavier hand than I used on the girl's hair, I flicked in E18 in the direction I imaged neat combed hair would lay. I then took E55 and colored over the back of the head to the side burn so the bottom hair would be slightly darker and less defined. It was a quick brush over - no work to blend the colors at all. </div>

<strong><u>His & Her Coats:</u></strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<em>Her Coat:</em> Surprise Surprise - I started with her coat first. I think it was actually because I pictured her more quickly. I picked out my favorite BV Color blending family BV20, BV23 and BV25. I colored a base of the BV20, and then lightly sketched in with the tip of my brush nib where the contours/curves of her body were to show where the shadows would go. I then went over those areas with the BV25. Then I came back in with BV23 to extend the shadow areas, and blend the darkest color. Then I went back with my lightest color, BV20, to blend the line between the base coat and the BV23. I colored the inside of the pleats with BV25, because this is where the folds of the fabric would be darkest. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<em>His Coat:</em> I didn't have all my markers with me when I was coloring this image, so I had to work with what I had on hand. When I was browsing my colors, I tried to picture coats that I've seen my family wear and see if I had markers to achieve the look.... My husband has this beautiful camel color coat and I love how soft and warm it is. So I drew my inspiration from that. I probably could have gone a little darker, but these were the only warm gray colors I had with me at the time. I followed the same process that I used on the girl's coat, but with W0, W2, and W5 instead. I did do a little tip-to-tip with the W2 and W5 when I needed an in-between shade. This helped me achieve a more blended look. </div>

I really struggled with which colors to use when I got to this point. The soft skin and hair colors, and then the dull BVs and Warm Grays were nice together. I really didn't want to pull in a random florescent color to ruin the soft romantic look that was evolving. So I went back to my HexChart.... *Quick thank-you-prayer to Sandy Allnock and the Copic Gods* </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I finally decided on these two blending groups (more of my favorite blending groups). Blues for the guy's scarf and sweater cuff; and dusty rose reds for the girl's hat, belt and sweater cuff. I colored the inside of the knit pleats with my darkest colors, because this is where the knits would cast shadows and naturally be the darkest. I also added shadows where ever I thought there would be a curve to help add extra dimension. </div>

<br />
Hopefully this post helped explain the awesomeness of Sandy Allnock's HexChart. I will likely refer to it in the future because it is an awesome tool and will use it all the time. In the meantime, I encourage you to pick up the HexChart from <a href="http://sandyallnock.com/hexchart" target="_blank">Sandy's store</a>. It's super reasonable! Just $5.99!

As a not particularly religious person, I don't have any faith based stamp images or sentiments. I did a search of the Stampin Up catalog, the simonsaysstamp website, and even Amazon.... I couldn't find anything that caught my fancy. Not surprisingly... </div><div><br></div><div>And then I searched Pinterest - I should have started there first, I don't know what I was thinking....</div><div><br></div><div>There were a ton of ideas, and most of them didn't even use stamps! But I wanted to color... I found a few card ideas that used images by MoManning and I fell in "craft love".</div><div><br></div><div>I googled Mo Manning to find out where I could buy her stamps, because I know I've purchased a few of her stamps before (Penny Black & Stamping Bella make rubber versions of her images) and I found her blog and online store: http://www.mosdigitalpencil.com. </div><div><br></div><div>She has a HUGE store full of digital images for very reasonable prices. I totally recommend you visit her store and take a peak at what she has. She's so talented! </div><div><br></div><div>Well, to make a short story, shorter, I found cute baby boy and baby girl images in baptism gowns. It was perfect for what I needed, so I added both images to my cart. And then, because it's an instinctive impulse, I browsed the rest of her image library. All of it. Every image. I couldn't help myself, everything was so gosh, darn cute!<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"> Before I knew it, I had 25+ images in my cart. I had an internal argument about spending money on a product I didn't need... Well, I "needed" it, but you know.... </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">So I compromised with my inner thrifty self. I purchased the two baby images, and this dragon image. It captured my heart as soon as I saw it. After all, I could go back and buy/download more images later. My instant gratification impulse would not suffer too much.</span></div><div><br></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif">I liked how easy it was to print out on my copic friendly paper (Neenah Exact Index,110lb white card stock) and how simple it was to resize the image. Magic! </font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif">Anyway I couldn't wait to color this dragon and little boy.

I've had such an amazing time coloring and actually using stamps that I had purchased years *cough* ago but hadn't used yet... I'm determined to break that trend.... So today's image is actually from a brand new set called "indescribable gift" by Stampin Up. I just got it in the mail this week and figured it would be the perfect end to a great month. I inked it up with MFT Black Licorice Hybrid ink and stamped onto Neenah Exact Index 110lb white card stock. I colored with copics and finished it off with a little bit of stardust gel pen. I really like how it turned out. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3mnxqlxFLc75LiwVZ2foBeQv6464MsekBpD7MG9VViH8__P9K_gAe899S8Q9Jo5Q8R5-ME6F7lbY_syuFjcwDJc9Qo-mPpEagcJvdLOHSC9zaDkDeVgmgK-1P82k0cDbkf3p-SG3BHHG3/s640/blogger-image-956276285.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3mnxqlxFLc75LiwVZ2foBeQv6464MsekBpD7MG9VViH8__P9K_gAe899S8Q9Jo5Q8R5-ME6F7lbY_syuFjcwDJc9Qo-mPpEagcJvdLOHSC9zaDkDeVgmgK-1P82k0cDbkf3p-SG3BHHG3/s640/blogger-image-956276285.jpg"></a></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06475685417090635667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958064353148573215.post-75173256730959525792015-04-01T21:05:00.001-07:002015-04-01T21:05:11.111-07:0030 Day Coloring Challenge - Day 29<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I literally had 5 minutes today - just 5 minutes!

This is one of the new Art Impressions Big Mouth Stamps and it's my submission for Day 23 of #thedailymarker30day challenge. <br />
<br />
In addition to the mischievous gator - this set also includes a little birdy stamp, a die to cut out the "big mouth" and a sentiment that says: "A little birdie told me it was your birthday... so I ate him"<br />
<br />
How can you not love that? <br />
<br />
This <a href="https://creativeplaystamps.com/art-impressions-big-mouths-cling-rubber-stamp-gator-p-33577.html" target="_blank">Art Impressions Big Mouth - Gator</a> stamped in My Favorite Things Black Licorice Hybrid Ink on Neenah Exact Index 110 lb cardstock and colored with Copics. <br />
<br />
I used YG00, YG01, YG63, YG67, YG93, YG97 and a 0.03 Copic multiliner to go over some of the finer details (eyes, teeth & fingers) to crisp up some of the essential lines. <br />
<br />
I can't wait to put it all together and use it for my brother's 30th birthday card... Eric - you don't read this blog, right????.....If you do, you'll love the finished card even more than this sneak peak of a partially finished image. Plus, I will be super impressed that you follow a card making blog - way to go for exploring new interests! It's hard to say that with a straight face... <br />

BECKY - LOOK AT HER BUTT...</strong> <br />
<br />
Sorry...I couldn't help myself (I'm actin' like an animal), Sorry again... I see Sir Mix-a-Lot lyrics in the strangest places.... <br />
<br />
If you are laughing - it's because your brain radio is tuned in to the same station mine is. :) Bringing back the 1992 hit: Baby Got Back....and blending it with 2015 card making. Awesome. Dirty Pop Culture, twisted up by crafty gal's sense of humor. <br />
<br />
This AMAZING stamp is my submission for Day 22 of #thedailymarker30day challenge. This is one of the new Spinner sets from Art Impressions. This specific set is called the <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product.aspx?id=317584" target="_blank">Fairy Spinner</a> and you know what's super fabulous about it, besides the obvious fabulousness of the image? *GASP* There are <a href="http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product.aspx?id=321172" target="_blank">matching Fairy Spinner dies</a>! I am super super SUPER excited! This means I won't have to fussy cut and pray the two images match up. Which also means, I will be using this set for allllll kinds of things.... Birthday Fairy, Tooth Fairy, Christmas Angels.... look out, "I'm hooked and I can't stop starin'...ooooo Baby!" <br />
<br />
I don't know why this is making my laugh so much... I hope you're giggling too!<br />

It's hard to believe I am over 2/3 of the way through this fabulous coloring challenge.... there is a part of me that wants to continue coloring once a day until I use every stamp set in my clutter room, I mean Craft Room. :-P <br />
<br />
This stamp and sentiment is <a href="http://stampingbella.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=18_62&product_id=155" target="_blank">Uptown Girl Audrey Loves Makeup</a> from Stamping Bella. I love these cute skinny ladies. I think this is what my inner goddess looks like...svelt, stylish and sophisticated... Then when I walk by a mirror in real life, I actually look like the Art Impressions Girlfriends stamps...well-fed, sassy and up for a good time. Do other people have that observation about themselves? <br />
<br />
I think thats why I love both stamp companies so much. Both capture how I see myself in my head and in reality. <br />

This is my submission for Day 19 of #thedailymarker30day challenge! This stamp is from a clear set by Penny Black. Suuuuper cute. Stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah Solar White 110 cardstock and colored with copics. </div>

Here's my submission for Day 20 of #thedailymarker30day challenge. These images quack me up.... Hehe! So cute! These are from the Lucky Duck set by There She Goes Stamps. </div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Over half way done with the challenge and I'm stilllll going strong! This is my submission for Day 16 of #thedailymarker30day coloring challenge. </span></div>

This is another fun one from There She Goes Stamps. This is "Birthday Bot". I stamped him in Tuxedo Black ink onto Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock and colored with copics. I went a little nuts on the pointalism after I had an oops...I opened a juicy marker over the image and splat! Shower of light blue dots.... This has happened to me before, so you would think that I would have learned my lesson about opening markers away from my image. *sigh* Sometimes I need to learn things twice.... Despite my juicy marker splatter, I think this image turned out pretty good!<br />
<br />
I also covered the robot with a good coat of <a href="http://www.ellenhutson.com/zig-wink-of-stella-glitter-brush-tip-marker-clear/" target="_blank">wink of stella clear brush pen</a>. You can kind of see the sparkle. :) </div>

I tried to be quick today... The images are from a There She Goes Stamps set called "A Drink A Day". I did a little masking so my lady could hold her lemon drop martini in her grip.

I am a total cat person. Ok - back up - I am not really an animal person at all... It's more fair to say I am a "cat stamp" person.... Haha :) I love cat stamps! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I love my real cat, but I'm like her 3rd favorite person. Which I guess is kind of a big deal for a cat.... She loves my Husband the most, which I understand... He IS the one that feeds her. But then she loves my husband's best friend the 2nd most.... And then I'm a distant 3rd. She only really shows me affection when no one else is around. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Anyway - I love cat stamps because they are cute and cuddly without the excess cat hair. Adorable. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This is my submission for Day 14 of #thedailymarker30day challenge. This stamp is from the "Crazy Cat Lady" clear stamp set by Art Impressions and exclusively sold at Michael's. As soon as I heard Art Impressions was releasing new stamps and they would be sold at Michael's, I literally jumped in my car and drove right over. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Now, I really do love this stamp company, but I do not like the clear stamps they produced with Hampton Art. I feel like they are made with sub-par materials and do not stamp a very good image. Even after stamping 15-20 times with an acrylic block, MISTI, and with the stamp press... no matter what tool I used, I still wasn't happy with the outline. I even tried using different copic friendly inks (memento tuxedo black and black licorice hybrid ink from MFT). Rather than waste ANOTHER sheet of paper, I decided to color the best image of the bunch and then go back and outline the image with a copic multiliner. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I stamped this one on Neenah Solar White, 110lb cardstock and inked the image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Colored with copics. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Even with my stamping difficulties, I really do like this image. It is super cute. </div>

My reflex is to color all people in the picture with the same skintone. I think that was more of a learned habit because when I started coloring with copics, I tried to color all "people" stamps with my own skintone. And I think I did that because it was easy to hold up my coloring against my own arm to see if my coloring looked like real skin. Last January I took a Copic Workshop on coloring hair and skintones and I learned a WHOLE lot of combinations that were just amazing. Since then, I have been trying to use what I've learned and I have been super happy with how well everything is turning out! </div>

And gosh, I think I might need to do something about the picture quality ... I have been taking pictures with my iphone5s. Perhaps I just need better lighting? probably. I need to figure that out... </div>

Here's my submission for Day 11 of #thedailymarker30day challenge! I pulled a random flower stamp from my craft stash (Stampendous I think??) and embossed it with white embossing powder. and then I tried the watercolor thing again with my Koi Watercolors. I'm still not comfortable with watercolor, but I think I just need more practice. </div>

One of the Sandy Allnock classes I took back in January 2015 featured this stamp set. I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. As soon as Simon Says Stamp had it on their website, I couldn't put it in my shopping cart fast enough... here's my first coloring adventure with this stamp set. </div>
