Ethic Skin Tones with Copics

Here are some examples of coloring ethnic skin tones with Copic Markers. The paper I used is X-Press It Blending Card. I might add that is is very tough to blend the darker colors on this card because the ink starts to goo up if you use to much of it-in other words it does not soak into the paper but sits on top. I am in love with Hammermill Color Copy Paper for Copics but it can be thin depending on your project. However, I just purchased the cardstock version so I will be trying it soon. I hope I love it as much as the paper because I absolutely love how Copics blend on it. I will blog about this topic soon. Images in the video are by The Greeting Farm and Mo's Digital Designs.

As Promised!

Here is the card I made using the image I colored with Copics from The Greeting Farm. I decided on using green hues for this card. The drippy goo punch used is by Martha Stewart. The die cut of the gate is from the Cricut Ornamental Iron cartridge. I absolutely LOVE that cartridge!

I Would Like Ideas!
