Hello! Life is starting to get back to normal, what with the holidays officially being over and all. I took today off from work to regroup, clean house and get caught up on blogging! Tomorrow…solidly back to reality. Uh Oh.
This week marks the start of my time as part of the iCopic Blog Design Team! WOO WOO! We are starting off with a GREAT color challenge: Red, Cream and Brown. Love that. Click here to go to the Color Challenge Page for the iCopic Blog! Later in the week (Wednesday) I will have my first post to share with you. Wednesday will be "my" day over at iCopic, and I hope you will follow along with me!
Today's card using the color challenge combo:
Here is the color challenge inspiration image. I was immediately drawn to using the strawberries and the basket. I love this color combination. I know I will use it more often. I used a pretty cherry red color and brown ink.
I used an old PSX stamp that I love and my trusty Copic Markers. The colors I used are: R27, R24 and R20, G17, G14 and G12, and Y11 and Y15. Red and black are the two hardest colors to blend and shade. Try blending in some pink with your reds to lighten them up a bit.

I love this card…I really like the country home feel of it! Strawberries are my favorite and this color combo is so fab for this image! Congrats again and can’t wait to get my Wednesday dish on iCopic!
I looooooove strawberries and you did a GREAT job coloring them, they look so yummy and luscious! 🙂
I love this ‘sweet’ card…it has a ‘homey’ feel to it. I love anything gingham.
Nice coloring! LC
Love this card too and just like TeaDub the country style of it…. Gorgeous!
Love the colors and strawberry’s so well done.
Looked at the blog but can’t become a follower but I will go and have a look many times.
This is fantastic!! Love your luscious looking strawberries!!
Oh, how fabulous!! Love, love this card, Wanda! Such a great take on the inspiration photo, and just so sweet, too. Great coloring job, as well, especially all the detail on the strawberries. Loving the brown with the red. Can’t help but be drawn to anything with brown…….cause that’s my favorite color. 😉
