Poppies with Copics card

I have made another card using the Wallpaper Art stamps, they are so easy to colour, this time I have used Copics to colour them.  



I stamped a strip of the flowers with two of the flower stamps and one of the leaves out of the set and using some masks I stamped the row with leaves popping out from behind. 

I then coloured them in with copics.  I don't have very many of them but the colours I do have, I have tried to buy sets of three shades of, so this was using the red set, I had two different darker reds, and wasn't sure which one was best so used both, a grey set and a green set. I have the numbers I used in the list below.  


I coloured the flowers and leaves in and then fussy cut them out to the stamped line and went around the edge with a black pen to tidy the edges up.  

I then did some shading on the card base with some greys so that it would look like a shadow underneath the coloured strip when I mounted them onto the card with some foam tape behind.  A sentiment and some nuvo crystal enamel dots finished the card off.


I really enjoyed the colouring of these flowers, its been a while since I have done any copic colouring, so I will have to try and do some more.

Here is a video on making the card, if you would prefer to see it in Hd then go to my YouTube channel here.

I hope this card has inspired you to use your flower stamps differently to make a border that can be used on a card.  This could be a card for any occassion and could be coloured with any colours or mediums.  Have a go!
