Digital Colouring

Hi Everyone, I have been playing. I chose this image which I have had for a few years, not sure it was still available, I searched the file name and found it still being sold HERE

It took me a few hours in Photoshop, but I really enjoyed the process. I know some of you can colour in markers like this, but I am much more comfortable digitally. ( I can rub it out) LOL. The sentiment came from the web. The freebie digi paper (link below) has a gradient overlay, I have also used blending and shadows where I felt it was needed. I still have a lot to learn although I am quite happy with how it turned out.

OH you have been doing tutorials!! She looks awesome. I can see the lighting on her..way to go!! I love having my husband color the stamp and then I print it out and make a card. I'm with you...not comfortable with the markers...even though you are way better with them then me. I'm not an artist I'm a gluer!

As an earlier commenter said: It is truly magical, and a bit different from the images you do so well. Lovely colors, that enhance the feeling of mystery yet still glow. If I could color so well in PS, I'd give up copics! You are just amazing, and I love this perfect sentiment. TFS & have a magical week to go along with this beautiful card. Hugs
