Wyanet (Beautiful)

I’ve had my eye on this cutie for a while and was thrilled to be able to color her up. This is Wyanet (Beautiful) from Whimsy Stamps and in the background is Path in the Woods, also by Whimsy Stamps. I thought with her sitting on the cliff ledge she would be perfect to look over all of the forest.

One of my favorite things was coloring the Path in the Woods with a river instead of a path. This was an idea I saw from Megan who was the guest designer at Whimsy. It was a brilliant idea and added some versatility to the background stamp. When coloring the background, I tried it differently from my last one but not quite as happy with the foliage as I wanted to be so I think that’s a challenge to try it again… and find another way. Any suggestions?

Here are the supplies I used:

Naughty Puppies

Here’s another little note card using one of the puppies from the Naughty Puppies set from Whimsy Stamps. He’s backed by some of the Whimsy Stamps glitter and transparent paper in the background plus some fruit paper I had in my stash. I colored the other two puppies from this set in normal puppy colors so I decided to go for a green one this time. 😀

Dreamy Dragon

This looks like the perfect Saturday afternoon activity so I couldn’t resit choosing this pal to color. This is Dreamy Dragon from Whimsy Stamps.  As I was looking for inspiration, I noticed this is usually colored in green, blue or purple. So I challenged myself to use a different color and a fiery orange came to mind.

These are the Copic markers I used on Dream Dragon:

Peggy

For my project today I was inspired by Nicolette’s bunny project and wanted to use the same layout. I found some of my pastel papers and then colored Peggy from Whimsy Stamps to use as the center focus. I added a couple die cut clouds and pasted it all together.

Here are the colors I used on Peggy:
YG21, 23, 17
BV23, 20, B41, C00, 1, 3
R00, E0000, 00, 30, 31

B41, 12

Polly

For my project today, I’ve used Polly rubber stamp from Whimsy Stamps.  I did a little creative color placement on her face to define it more and give her larger eyes.  The paper I selected only had yellow so I tried not to pull in too many other colors.  Making her outfit black and white helps draw attention to her head, rose and envelope.  Then I also kept the accessories and paper toned down.

These are the Copic markers I used on Polly:
E0000, 000, 21, 33, 35, BV20, R11
YG01, 23, 97
C1, 3, W8
E47, 08, 19, YR14
YR24, 23, 31, 30, Y23, E23
W9, 6, 5, 3

I’ve added details to the face and gave her larger eyes. 
As a comparison you can see the before and after of her face. 
These characters are adorable and I love the added color in the eyes.
