This is just my second try with my new copics. So far I have 65.. The first one I tried turned out really well - and looks identical to my last house mouse card. I chose this image on purpose to challenge my colouring abilities.. and challenge me it did!! It was a lot of browns , oranges and greens - not easy for a colour girl like me.. and IRL it looks a lot better.. I just coudn't quite capture the colour on photo.
The background looks more evenly coloured than in the picture - but is not totally even, I admit. The mice and other things are given some dimension with CE...
Okay, have a chuckle at my not so great copic card.. next time I'll find an easier to colour image.. and well.. I can only think I need to add more shades to my collection of copics!! ;)
Thanks for looking!!

That is just the sweetest image!! You're doing an excellent job with the Copics, you sure dove in with a very difficult image to color and did it extremely well.

In all honesty Deborah, someone should be laughing at the comment you made about your coloring. This is MAGNIFIQUE MA CH�RE! You are very talented. This could very well be framed. So there ma petite amie, you sure can master those copics, 'cause they got nothin' on you! Right. Love love love it. My seal of approval and a couple of other cardmakers will agree with MOI I'm sure. LOL
