This has got to be one of the most time consuming cards I think I've ever made. I mean I've done ones with lots of drying time in between steps, but this one was continuous work! LOL
I think I used just about every Copic I own! But the main ones are E31, E33, E37 for Riley, RV02 & RV11 for the hammock, G21, YG06, G07, E33, E31 for the trees, and B21 for the sky.
I did the layers a little differently. I stamped the image at least 6 times and then colored different parts on each one. I then added a layer of CS behind each before cutting them out, so they were 2 CS layers thick. Riley's head is more like 4 layers and then 1/2 a layer of mounting tape (the full layer was too thick, so I used my cutter bees to trim it down, That was NOT fun LOL) Then I started layering them on top of the background. EVERYTHING is at least 1 - 2 layers thick. It shows up much better IRL.
The pink bkg layer has Linen stamped twice, first in Regal Rose and again on top in White. I was trying to match the PP I cut the flowers out of, I think I got it pretty good ;)
