    My First Copic Coloring #1

    I decided to playing around with copic marker practicing my coloring, Some of Gina K card stock have dirty stink little on the paper, so I decided to use the clean side of the card stock. I thought I will make a card instead I make a bookmark lol its turn out very cute. I hate using the colorless blender. I want to push back some of my ink to my image, but don't work for me, so I have to be careful to color inside the line. Colorless blender don't like me very much. This is Mr. Oliver eating a cookie from OA - Just For You Greeting Farm Stamp. I really the colors that I use with this image.
