Green Green Green -- We colored GREEN -- with YG21, 23, 25, 45 --

Oh, how I love those DRAGONS -- and I am NOT a dragon person.  You should see the two NEW ones that are ALMOST done.

Here is Dragon Jill Swinging -- surrounded by the beautiful Spellbinder dies.  I have totally fallen in love with the new Spellbinder dies.  And I am REALLY excited about the larger Grand Caliber dies.  They just keep making things bigger.

And, of course, there had to be a scrapbooking girl in the Everyday Kids Series.  She had to be green, too.

And how do you like the Feather embellishment?  WOW

Hair Hair Hair -- How do you color hair, and what markers do you need?  One of the biggest question we get is what markers do I used for hair.  Now, I am going to give you some answers.

 Real hair has many many colors.   I decided to get logical about this question.  To begin with, I am going to post hair using color families. 

So watch this post, or go to my Pinterest board  (http://pinterest.com/copicclasseroom/copic-classroom/)

The first color family I am using is the Earth tones in the 20's.  This family of browns tend to be warm.  Some look almost blond going to a brown, brunette, and auburn.  The markers I used are E21,23,25,27,29.  I colored the base coat first.  The first color listed is the base coat.  Then progressed on.  See the YouTube video to check it out.

Oh my gosh.  I got these new dies that make windows and shutters.  I could hardly wait to use it.  We have over 60 EVERYDAY KIDS digi prints.   This is just one of them.  I call it "Girl with Tulips"  I actually made it for my mom, as she loves to garden, and loves dogs.  So I colored two of the 17 dogs we have in digi stamps to look like our Mocah and Latte.

Then, of course, I had to make curtains out of vellum, and grass out of some scrap paper.  After I made it as a card, I am thinking about putting it in a scrapbook for her, as I have other Everyday kids that remind me of her.

We have a new series, called Dragons, Dragons, Dragons.  These were so much fun to color using the Copic Markers.

I used these colors:

Dragon, leaves Green  YG21, 23,25,45
Dragon:  Violet:  V12,15,17
Pot:  E11,13,15,17
Flower:  Y13,17,19

I don't know I first made this in to a card -- 6X6, but have decided I am going to make it in to a wall hanging-- with a series of three dragons.  I think that will be fun.

I added a photo of the  2nd and third dragon -- wow, am I loving these.  They are so easy and so much fun to color. 

You can buy the images at www.ScrapItPlus.com -- e-store.

OK -- took the sentiments off, pasted to 6X6 chip  board, punched holes, added rings and ribbon -- cards turned in to wall hanging . . .  I have a grand nephew that would LOVE it. . .but he would want to color it  himself.
