This card might look semi familiar - I CASE'd the coloring from my dear friend and Copic Goddess Barb Foster. I wanna color like her when I grow up! Seriously girlfriend can work a marker! I loved how she used the Glossy Accents on top of the umbrella, raincoat and boots on her card - so I had to CASE that too! (CASE=copy and steal everything!) I was able to use our brand new Copic Caboodles Cardstocks - these are from Set B. LOVE these the most! Those blue greens are just so inviting and yummy.

Some of the Copics used can be found in Sets A, B, F and G - and the rest are from the Caio sets.

here are the detail shots...you can see the dimension of the Glossy accents in this one:

I am getting better at wielding my markers me thinks! Especially after pointers and tips from Barb this weekend!

from above:

It is really hard to capture the background - it is similar to Barb's dotty background but i kinda scribble more than dot. I like it and am trying to figure out how to teach someone else how to do it! YOUtube is in order I think!

I am unpacking and re-organizing in my studio and trying to resist coloring all day! I have a crop this weekend in Manhattan and am looking forward to a whole day of stamping and coloring and scrapbooking! Maybe I can get some pictures together from our vacation.... add that to the list!
