Copic Coloring Tutorial with Dawn

Color the ears and the areas over the eyes with E23... add some to the nose as well.

Using E25, feather some contrast aound the edges and where shadows would be... like under the eyes and around the muzzle 

Using E27,reinforce the shading for extra depth

to blend the edges... use E23 again and lay more color over the previous colored areas to blend.

notice the difference with the ears blended?

use E0000 to color the white areas of the dog

Shade with E41 and E42 

Blend the colors to reduce linds and create soft blending 

add spots on the muzzle with E25 AND  add crystal effects to the eyes and nose 

 

And here is my finished card!

and the inside...

 where do you write your note? I added a white scallopedoval to the back of the card to hise the glue dots and you can add a note there or on another sheet of paper allowing the sender to recycle and reuse the card!

I love the sentiment and it reads...

"The life and love we create is the life and love we live."
