Just fabulous, Kathy! I love the wall and floor that you created!!
Amazing Card, thanks for the chance to win!!!
Very beautiful card. I would love to have this book, as I do have other Annie's Copic Coloring Books. I am rusty at doing copic shading, as all my card making supplies have been stashed away for a little over two years with our busy lifes of building our own home. We are now in, but have lots of outside projects to finish, so card making is on the back burner, as our summer is so short and the snow will be flying soon.
Great card. I need all the help I can get. This book would do the trick.
beautiful card thanks for sharing with us.
Wow! Awesome coloring, Kathy. Can't
wait to get the book.
