Tutorial: Creating Garden Scenes
Hello everyone, Joni here sharing these new cute fox critters from the Fox Friends stamp set and the Fox Friends Coordinating die set. I also used the new Stitched Hexagons dies. Today I want to share with you how to ground images using your Copic markers.
To begin, I first distressed an A2 white card panel then die-cut on the upper right using the medium sized Stitched Hexagons dies. At the bottom of the panel I drew 2 lines using a pencil mark (see: arrows). This will serve as a guide on where to put some grass and dot images using Copic markers.
Next, I using YG95 and G99 to draw my grass and dots for my ground.
I added more color of Copics to make it more realistic look. I used E31 and E57 for the add on.
Next, I removed the pencil marks. For the back of the hexagon, I distressed some piece of white cardstock using Distress Ink in Wild Honey. Next, I adhered the piece of cardstock with foam tape for dimensions even though it’s a background.
Then, I added some water splatter and gold splatter using the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors.
I adhered the die-cut images with foam tape for added dimensions. I also added some of the new Tropical Flowers sequins (orange color). I also include some of the Sparkling Clear sequins to finish off the card.
Here’s another look.
