Copic Creations Challenge with Penny Black and a prize winner

The Copic Creations Challenge Blog has another challenge for you and it's to DOODLE!

Thats right, anyway you can think of, doodle on your images. It can be with the copic markers, multiliner, etc.

AND, we are being sponsored by Penny Black who graciously gave us each a different stamp and sentiment!

Now these were given to us at RANDOM.... so how in the world did I end up with a WEDDING STAMP! HAHAHAHA! It's like I can't escape the wedding madness (ok, for those coming over from the copic creations blog and who aren't regular followers of my blog, i'm a makeup artist who works the most it seems these days in the wedding industry. I have a wedding every weekend thru mid November, and it's been that way since March. So to say i often have brides on the brain is an understatement!

ANd i got Bride and Groom from Penny black. It made me giggle a bit, really. :D

Here's my card...

For my doodling, i took accent colors from the images and dotted around the bride and groom. I also took a spica and a gelly roll pen and dotted inside her dress to create the bling. I di dmost at the top and then faded it down, but it didnt seem to capture as well in the photo. bummer.

You may notice her dress is a tad yellow as well. I have had SO many brides with Ivory dresses. Much more common than the white gowns these days. Gone are the days of the white dress that was so white it was almost blue! Haha! I used YR31 and YR30 to shade the dress.

My image was a tad on the large side, so I was having a hard time figuring out how to get the sentiment on the card as well, but I love it and I think i'm going to stamp it on the back of my cards that I put in my brides touch up bags. Or maybe i'll get really ambitious and make a bunch of thankyou cards with them... but really... i dont see that happening!!! hahaha! i can only hope I find that kind of time!

But i did come up with this fun way to use the sentiment INSIDE my card (who woulda thunk, huh?)

As you can see, i used the bride and groom image again, this time stamping it in a pigment ink.

I truly adore this sentiment!

Thank you so much Penny Black for knowing me so well!
