4th of July Witch

This is a witch from the digi stamps set from ScrapItPlus.  It is called "Everyday Kids Witch".   (ScrapItPlus.com  e-store)  She is new, and I couldn't wait to color her, but it is only JULY. . . witches are for October.

 Then it hit me.  We have a family "Christmas in July" every year.  So why can't I have a "Witch in July" this year.  I got out my Copics and off I went. Her skin looks actually more washed out that she really is.  Oh well.   I also forgot to add the blush.  (My new motto is to EMBRACE IMPERFECTION-- so I had better do that.

I added BoBunny paper to the background, and decided to either send it as a card or make it a 6"X6" wall art.

I used these colors:

Skin:  E000, E00, E01, E02  (Oops, forgot the blush)
Blues:  B93, B95, B97, Deep shadow:  B99
Reds:  R22 (Base), R27 and R59 for Deep shadow
Lips:  R22
Shoes:  C3, C5
White:  paper color (I should have added C0 for slight shadow on white.  OOPS
Stars:  White gel pen -- Uniball   Signo

I "fussy cut" her out.  One thing nice about most of the Everyday Kids, they are soooo easy to cut out.
Most of the images come in three sizes -- and the Everyday Kids Witch is no exception.

Grey Dog and Denim

This card uses the image of a dog.  It's name is "Latte" (The name of my Maltese).  It has been colored grey.  You can see the YouTube video on how to color it here:

There were only two colors used, W2, and W5 -- both warm greys.  Warm greys are used when you want your grey to have a warm color -- more yellow, red, orange.  These greys are often used with animals, tree trunks, etc.  

The exception for the dog, is when you are coloring a white dog, in which you would use the cool greys, to make your whites pop out more.  (See YouTube video of coloring a white dog -- Latte image.
