Previously in the Advanced Class

Very long time with no update. Life as been rather hectic for me, so sadly, blog updates were pushed back a bit, but expect more soon! We're pumping out cards earlier, and posting em' just as fast!

These two cards were created by my mom and I for February's Advanced Copic Class. Cards were coloured by me and designed by mom. She doesn't make cards often, but I think they're pretty. :)

As you noticed, many of the colours between the two cards are repeated. When doing a stamp set, this helps to cut back on needed colours, makes a busy stamp look less overpowering (since there aren't 20 different colours leaping off the page at you), and helps your two (or more) cards look more unified. However, don't be afraid to play and experiment. With Copics, there is no right and wrong.
