This is the first image I ever colored with Copics and I was so disgusted that I tossed it aside. When I saw the umbrella today, I was hopeful that I could salvage the image and make a card with it.
I used the SC237 sketch and used flocked paper for the WT232 challenge. You probably can't see it, but I added Crystal Effects to the puddle. The rhinestones were a gift from Peggy-Sue ... thank you!
I'm none too happy with this, but it sure is nice to be making cards again.
Have a wonderful day!

Fabulous work with the copics, M! Just divine!!! I knew you'd have no trouble at all!! And such a fun fun image -so perfect for those of us living by the Pacific!!! In Canada we don't call Vancouver the Pacific Northwest - because in Canada - girl - we are south!! But we do live in a rainforest!! sigh!!! Lovely bling and flowers!! Fabulous layout!!

I'm kind of new at copics too M. They really glide on easily, but the blending is always my problem. You did a GREAT job on this image and with the challenge. You are SO GOOD at the inspiration challenges. I love your card and that added bling from Peggy-Sue just makes your card sparkle. Love the trio of flowers too!! TFS!

Adorable -and wonderful colouring! Much better than my first attempt, which by the way STAYED in the trash LOL! Sweet image - and I could use that umbrella or perhaps an ark for all the rain we've had over the last week!
