In today's Ways to Use it challenge, Steph asked us to make a card with Apples. So I looked thru my collection of digis and found this one from Designed2Delight. The last couple of times, I have been asked about my coloring. So I thought I could share the Copic markers I used. I colored the red part of the apple with R35, R46, R27 leaving the white crescent as a light reflection. Near the stem I used G23 and Y00. For the leaves I used G21 and YG63 and the shadow under the apples is E15 and E37. They say it is usually best to use at least three colors. But for the leaves, I didn't want to go to dark. Also, I sponged the background with yellow ochre chalk.
The reason I used the sentiment, "FROM HARVEST" is because that is the name of the town where I live. I thought it went pretty well with the image. It is computer generated.
Thanks so much for taking a peek!
