February 2015 Copic Class- The Stamp Addict

Hello!

Well can you believe we are into the second month of the year already?  Wow!  Let's color up some animals for our February projects.  These adorable images are all available through Stampendous and will be available for order at The Stamp Addict on day of class along with all of the other Stampendous stamps.  So if there is a Stampendous stamp you are wanting that will be a great day to order it!  Class participants even get a discount! I always suggest that you bring ALL of your alcohol markers because you always want that one that you left home.  If you need help carrying them inside we can help you.  Class is On Sunday Feb 15  2:30 - 5:00- call Store for details and registration.  619-667-5060

Images by Stampendous: Sleepy Feline
Copics:  your favorite golden tones.  I used:
fur: YR31, YR24, YR27, E35,
ears: R20,

I love this Lilac Bear image by Stampendous!  He is just so happy and springy.  I colored him with my Copics.  Although you could use browns or cool grays, I chose to color him with warm grays.  I also dotted the lilacs with a bit of Copic Opaque White (or you could use a good quality white gel pen)

Lilacs: V01, V12, V15, V09 (or V17)
This fun Summery Flamingo is also by Stampendous and is colored with a variety of Copics.  I hope you will join us in class so I can help you color each of these fun images.

Flamingo (bring your favorite pink combo) 
I used a variety including RV55, RV00 R20
also used: YG01, YG03, YG63, YR24, B000
