Thank you for stopping by today for our 10th challenge ~
Copic marker coloring techniques for
Red & Pink. We’ve included some awesome tutorials to help you in this challenge and our Design Team has created some gorgeous projects showcasing the colors Red and/or Pink.
We have some more exciting news this week: Beginning with our September 1st challenge, we are so very fortunate to have an amazing artist,
Asela Hopkins, joining our Design Team!! You may have seen her work … she is currently a rubber stamp illustrator for GinaK Designs and on Gina’s Senior Design Team!! Woo hoo!
Susana’s online store has a wide array of all the latest products available to aid in your art and card creations. You’ll truly be amazed at the selection of products she carries ~ exclusive rubber stamps, paper by the sheet, any embellishment your heart could desire, and COPIC markers, just to name a few! Susana was gracious enough to provide stamps from her store for the Design Team cards today. Since the theme of Susana’s Custom Art & Card Design is
Red, Pink & Hearts, we’ve devoted our challenge to this theme.
It’s also a VERY special day today ~ It’s Susana’s birthday! Several of the DT projects are birthday cards for Susana.
It may be Susana’s birthday, but she is giving a spectacular prize to one lucky participant … are you ready????

The DT samples are just out of this world!! Love them all 🙂
Lucky you to get Asela, she is one of my heroes, I so admire her style and of course her coloring is just amazing!!
I added my humble attempts to color with red copics to Mr. Linky, don’t have any hearts though 😦
Well, that was fun … my first challenge completed!
Stunning samples, ladies! You continue to amaze me (and reaffirm that I was definetely out of my league on a team with y’all!) These cards are all fabulous!
Wow I found this challenge blog through Caudia Rosa’s blog and am so glad I did – the DT cards for all the challenges are amazing and the tutorials you have done are brilliant – have entered my first piece for the challenge this week, but have also really loved going through the past tutorials and trying the techniques – I can see the improvement in my eyes and hair already. So thank you very much – cant wait to see what will be next.

Happy belated Birthday to Susana! A GREAT prize, thanks for the opportunity. Beautiful coloring and cards from the DT, always an inspiration! Tammi xx
This is a great challenge. Red is so difficult to color with, it was great to have some tutorials. Thank you for all the inspiration.
What a wonderful challenge and such yummy Blog Candy! Andy Happy, happy Birthday Susana!
I don’t normally think of a Red Fox as having pink, but pics I found online make their faces look pinkish so I went with it! 🙂
Thank you for this wonderful challenge!!! I love all the dt cards they are all soooo pretty!!!!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,

What beautiful cards! I just found your challenge blog and I can’t wait to learn more how to use my Copics. Thanks for the wonderful helpful links, too.
I added my creation to Mr. Linky (No.48 Chrissy Le), but I forgot to add a direct link. Can you redit the link for me, I’m not sure how to re-edit the Mr. Linky. ( http://chrissyle.blogspot.com/2009/08/i-made-this-card-today.html ), thank you!
Just left my creation with Mr. Linky (#49 Gabby). Thanks for the challenge! 🙂
this is a wonderful color to work with-red/pinks!
