Hey there, Bleeps! TGIF and time for another Caardvarks Challenge! It's all about coloring this time! How did I do? I am a newbie at coloring and using Copics, so what do you think?! I find the shadow part the hardest for me. For instance, where do I put it and when is it too much? If you have any tips, feel free to share them with me!
Thanks also for all of the anniversary wishes. Mac was blown away and read them too! I'll share with you a card HE MADE this weekend!

Oh I think you did a great job. The trees look really realistic too! Shadows are really hard! Let us know if you find out the secret to making it perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable card, Ashley!! Love the color scheme and of courses design. As far as your co,oring skills I think you did awesome. I think the shadow part is also the hardest for me. Your work is always inspiring. TFS Oh and I can't wait to see the card your husband made.
ReplyDeleteLovely card, Ashley...
ReplyDeleteThough I do not know any coloring at all but I do recommend Beth Norman's tutorial on the shadow part that she recently covered in her coloring tutorial:

ReplyDeleteAdorable card!!! Great job on the coloring. Can't wait to see Mac's card, how sweet of him to make you one too.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh, Ashley! This is just darling! Hugs to you,
ReplyDeleteGreat card! I think your coloring is way better than mine. That's why I don't color much cause I'm not good with shadows. Funny thing is that I use to win coloring contests back in elementary school... shadows and all that. But I quit after I moved back to Indonesia.
ReplyDeleteI love this card! It is so cute! And your coloring is fantastic!
