Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice!


Hello and happy Thursday!

Marie here with another mini-tutorial on a new Copic color combo- 
The air is getting a bite in the air and the tree's are getting their gorgeous Fall coloration
 in my little part of the world. 
It's time for pumpkin pie and all the goodies with the wonderful flavors of cinnamon and nutmeg!

 That inspired me for our next color combo!
Pumpkin Spice
YR23, YR16, YR15, YR12 and E35 for high intensity.

Christina Z, a wonderful member of our MarkerPOP Community 
requested a tutorial on coloring pumpkins. 
I have a new stamp with a pumpkin on it but it's size is small. 
I will create a card using that stamp but I wanted to color a larger pumpkin 
for the purpose of this tutorial. 
Therefore, I pulled out a pencil, sketched a large o.e' lopsided pumpkin  
added some leaves and then traced over it with a Copic o.o3 multiline pen.
 I then erased the pencil and began coloring! 
 This one's for you Christina - and I hope I do it justice!
