Loose colouring with Copic markers

If you’re like me and are still new to Copic markers then you may at times feel intimidated in colouring a stamp in. What’s great with this PinkFresh Studio You Are My Favorite stamp is it has a lovely loose look to florals, as though you’ve had drawn it. This style really lends itself to loose colouring with Copic markers, creating an artistic look very quickly! The recipient will love it and think you’ve painted it. So let’s get started!

loose colouring with Copic markers: creating the flower panel

Start off by die cutting a panel with the smallest stitched die from the PinkFresh Studio Essential: Slim Stitched Rectangles. Next, position this in your MISTI platform and stamp the large stamp from the PinkFresh Studio ‘You Are My Favorite’ stamp set in Catherine Pooler Twilight Ink. 

Select two shades of Copic markers in pastel pink, blue and green. Start off by adding the lightest colour first out of the pair to the base of the flower and flick your strokes up and out following the shape of the flower. You don’t need to add colour to all of the flower – the loose colour pairs with the partially draw flowers. Then go in with the darker shader to add a little definition, blending out with the paler colour. 

Copic colours used in this card:

  • RV000
  • RV02
  • B60
  • B63
  • YG11
  • YG41

loose colouring with Copic markers: assembling the card

Once the panel is coloured in, foam mount this onto a slim-line card base. Next, use Lea’s Ornate lowercase alphabet set from PinkFresh Studio to die-cut the word ‘Yay’, out of black card keeping the thin outline layer. Use a Quickie Glue pen to glue the die-cut sentiment to the front of the card. 

In addition, stamp and emboss in white onto the black card a sentiment from the stamp set. To finish the card off, add a few sequins scattering them around the card.
