BIG colouring!!


Bonjour à tous! Grand format aujourd'hui! Plutôt que de faire une carte, pour changer et remplir un de mes cadres, j'ai décidé d'utiliser un tampon Gorjuss XL, que vous pouvez voir sur ma feuille A4 ci-dessous pour vous donner une idée.

Hello everyone! Today, I've decided to go BIG! Yes, instead of making a card, I had a frame to fill so decided why not colour a big A4 image to go in it? I used an XL Gorjuss Girl stamp, which you can see below on an A4 sheet to give you an idea. 


Après avoir tamponné mon image, j'ai tracé un cadre au Multiliner Copic gris pour délimiter ma zone à colorier, l'idée étant ensuite de couper un peu de blanc sur les bords.

After stamping my Gorjuss Girl, I traced a rectangle using a Copic grey Multiliner to determine where I would stop my colouring - the idea being to just cut off some of the white edges to frame my girl in an 18x24 frame. 


J'ai commencé par le fond sans essayer de fondre les couleurs, avec du V12, 15, 17. Résultat très brouillon, mais pas problème!

I started by colouring the background without trying to blend the colours. I used V12, 15, 17. Very messy, but not a problem!


Avec ma recharge d'encre de Blender et une éponge naturelle, j'ai tamponné mon fond jusqu'à obtenir un résultat qui me convenait.

I then used my Blender 0 Refill on a natural sponge and dabbed until I was satisfied with the background. 


La Gorjuss - peau d'abord avec du YR000, 00, 01, E11, E71 et un peu de RV02 pour les joues.

Now to the colouring of my girl itself - I started with the skin as usual, in YR000, 00, 01, E11, E71 and a bit of RV02 for the cheeks. 


Les vêtements ensuite, je voulais rester dans les mêmes tons que mon fond, donc V09, 12, 15, 17 pour le violet. Pour le noir de la robe, C5, 7, 9 et pour les chaussettes C0, 1, 3. Je n'ai pas fait attention à préserver les détails comme les pois car je savais que j'allais les couvrir de stylo gel à la fin.

I then focussed on the clothes using the same colour family as my background - the purple is V09, 12, 15, 17. For the black of her dress, I used C5, 7, 9 and for the socks C0, 1, 3. As you can see, I did not pay too much attention to the little dots on her dress since I knew I would cover them in gel or paint pen at the end. 


Pour les cheveux, toujours pour préserver une certaine harmonie, j'ai utilisé mes C - C5, 7, 9, comme pour la robe.

I coloured the hair using my C markers to really have harmony in the picture - so C5, 7, 9 too, as for the dress. Here is a recap of all the colours I used:

Skin/ Peau: E11, 71, YR000, 00, 01, RV02
Hair/ Cheveux: C5, 7, 9
Dress/ Robe: C5, 7, 9, V09, 12, 15, 17
Socks/ Chaussettes: C0, 1, 3, V12, 15, 17
Ground/ Sol: C3, 5
Background/ Fond: V12, 15, 17


Et pour terminer, j'ai fait des coeurs avec un pochoir Kraftin' Kimmie et un stylo gel Pentel, puis j'ai ajouté un peu de blanc et doré au Pentel et Posca.

As a final touch, I added hearts using the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Happy Hearts Stencil and a Pentel gel pen, and I also added a bit of white and gold highlights in Posca pen and gel pen too.

Merci de votre visite et bonne journée! 

That's all from me today, thank you very much for your visit! Hugs,
Delphine xx

Bonjour à tous! Je vous amène un peu de soleil aujourd'hui avec la carte que j'ai faite pour Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps :) J'ai utilisé un renard rigolo du set Beach Blanket Bingo - en promo à -40%!!


Stamp: Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Beach Blanket Bingo
Colouring: Graph'O on Canson Montval

I stamped my fox in KKS Wicked Black Hybrid Ink and decided to create a background around him. I coloured everything in Graph'o watercolour pens and added a bit of handwriting as a final touch.

J'ai créé une scène autour de mon renard et j'ai tout mis en couleur avec mes Graph'O et j'ai ajouté un peu d'écriture à la main.

Ma carte, avec le set Make a Wish :)


Stamps: Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Make a Wish

Colouring: Copics on Make it Colour Blending Card
Dies: MFT

I stamped 2 characters from the Make a Wish set and die cut my paper with a die matching the scene in my mind ;) I coloured everything in Copics and drew a simple background. I then mounted my scene onto an MFT scalloped die that I coloured with a metallic Pitt pen.

J'ai tamponné 2 personnages du set Make a Wish et j'ai utilisé une découpe qui laissait l'espace nécessaire à la scène que j'avais en tête. J'ai tout mis en couleurs au Copic et dessiné un fond simple. J'ai ensuite placé ma scène sur une découpe MFT, coloriée avec un Pitt métallique. 

You'll get to see ALL of our new goodies in action today and over the next few days and they will all be released at our LIVE ONLINE RELEASE PARTY on Sunday May 12th at 1pm EST!

Krafty Tutorial - Savannah!


Hello everyone! I'm back to share a step-by-step tutorial on a savannah scene make. I have used a super sweet giraffe from the Kraftin' Kimmie Wild World set and decided to give it a background.

Bonjour à tous! Petit tutoriel aujourd'hui, je vous emmène dans la savane! 


I die cut a piece of paper and airbrushed it using my Copics. I used YR07, 16 then Y15, 11 to suggest a sunset scene.

J'ai utilisé une découpe Lawn Fawn et créé un fond avec mon airbrush et mes Copic YR07, 16 puis Y15, 11.
  

I then drew a background, using the chisel nibs of my C7 and C9 to create the ground, then I doodled the rest in Copic multiliners. For the blades of grass in the foreground, I used my Copic Small Brush Multiliner.

J'ai ensuite dessiné une scène, avec les pointes biseautées de mes Copic C7 et C9 pour le sol, puis j'ai dessiné les formes au Multiliner. 


I stamped the giraffe from the Wild World Set in Wicked Black Hybrid Ink, did some fussy cutting and coloured it in Copics. Quick tip: I coloured the whole body without paying attention to the dark "spots" of the giraffe, much easier to place the shadows than going around all the little details ;)! On the photo above, I used E41 and E50 only - you will see the rest of the colouring below!

J'ai tamponné puis découpé une girafe rigolote du set Kraftin' Kimmie Wild World Set et je l'ai coloriée au Copic. Plutôt que d'éviter les taches de la girafe, j'ai placé mes ombres et fait le blanc en coloriant par-dessus les taches. Juste du E41 et E50 ci-dessus - voir ci-dessous pour la colo en entier:)



I put my savannah background on a card base, then added my coloured giraffe on foam pads for a bit of dimension. Here are all the colours I used:

Giraffe: E29, 41, 50, 99, W1, 3
Background/ Sky Y11, 15, YR07, 16
Background/ Black: C7, 9, Copic multiliners

J'ai collé mon fond et ajouté ma girafe sur carrés mousse pour un peu de relief. 
Girafe: E29, 41, 50, 99, W1, 3
Fond/ Ciel:Y11, 15, YR07, 16
Fond/ Noir: C7, 9, Copic multiliners


And I thought why not put a frame? That would make a nice gift! 

Et finalement, j'ai mis un cadre pour faire un petit cadeau sympa ;)!

Thank you very much for stopping by, have a great day everyone! Hugs,
Delphine xx

Vamos A La Playa!


Hello everyone! Dreaming of holidays and nice weather? Well, let's got to the beach today ;)! I'm sharing the sunny card I created for my Glimps DT post, using the sweet Vamos A La Playa digi image. I did some fussy cutting and coloured her in Copics. 


Skin: E71, YR000, 00, 01
Hair: Y11, YR21, 27
Clothes: BG11, 13, V01
Hat: E50, 51, 53, 55
Bag: BG11, 13, 45, 49
Glasses: C7, RV52, 55


I then picked some DPs to create a backgroudn for my character. From the top, I layered 2 different Bella Blvd DPs, and added an MFT brown DP to suggest the sand - a piece I cut with a Martha Steward border punch.


I then put all my elements together: background on the card base, a sentiment I cut from a Doodlebug pad that I put on foam for a bit of dimension. I put my character on foam too, and as a final touch, I added a few sequins and dots. 


Image: Glimps Vamos A La Playa
Colouring: Copics on Make it Colour Blending Card
DPs: Bella Blvd, Doodlebug, MFT
Other: KKS Dots, sequins
