I think this is one of the first stamps I bought when I decided I wanted stamps to color. I had some really bad markers and it only took me a minute to decided I didn't like stamps that had to be colored. And I didn't color on a stamp for a very long time either. Isn't that funny? When I started coloring images again I would only using coloring pencils because I could use them and get the effect that I wanted. Then I met Copics and now I color all the time and can't really remember the last time that I used a stamp, other than a sentiment that didn't have to be colored. Red, black and white are one of my favorite color combos, in fast, as I am redoing my dining room that will be the new color palette in there. I decided to make a little red dress because it reminds me of a beautiful dress my sister bought a while back to wear to a wedding. I added some pearls to dress it up a little. Stamp is from Stampendous, colored with Copics, papers are DCWV, pearls from the Paper Studio and I used a Fiskars border punch.
Have a great day!

This is beautiful and your coloring with the highlighting is perfect. It is funny to look back and see how far you have come isn't it? Love the color combo, one of my favorites as well and the pearls are the perfect accent for this little red dress.
You just can't beat a red, black and white card - and I love this! Your coloring is so pretty on this too. Wonderful card.

yes, I love my copics too, and remember trying to colour with SU watercolour pencils, and I wasn't very good at it, so glad to have discovered copics! Your colouring here is just great, you got the depth of the folds of the dress, and the overall card is very pretty.
