Hi! This card was made for today's Clean and Simple Challenge: Red, brown and white/cream/ivory.
I have been wanting to use this charm with this stamp set for a while, now. But, it was brass, not brown. So, I decided that COPPER was a brown color. I used a Copic Marker to color the charm copper. Now, I KNOW you can't see the color well. I tried to photographic it better, but I am taking MAJOR pain killers right now, and I'm lucky I could cut the ribbon without cutting off a limb this evening. (I pulled a muscle, and let's just say, I'm having a difficult time walking. This is day #2 of this, and if you had seen my 3 attempts to color yesterday, you'd have thought I'd reverted back to pre-school! LOL)
I stamped the images in Burnt Umber and colored in with Copics.
Finished card size: 5" square
Total time: WAY over an hour...I'm suffering!!!
