Copic-coloring Roses for Mother’s Day!

11 May

Hello!  I have a quick Mother’s Day card to share today using the gorgeous roses from the Best Mom Ever set from Simon Says Stamp!

Happy Mother's Day by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Simon Says Stamp

To start I stamped all the roses and leaves onto masking paper and fussy cut them.  Then I arranged them on my card panel to figure out how I wanted to arrange my flowers.  Once I was satisfied with the arrangment I started stamping them onto my panel, masking as I went along.  This is the arrangement I ended up with:

Next I colored my arrangement with copic markers.  I started with my darkest shades first and then blended out to the lighter colors.  I used the following copic markers:

  • Roses: RV00, RV21, RV23, RV25, RV29, R37
  • Leaves: G03, G14, G16, G28

After I was happy with the color I added a layer of spectrum noir clear sparkle to the roses.  I wish it photographed better because that layer of shimmer is gorgeous when the light hits it!

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment onto black cardstock with versamark and heat-embossed it with white embossing powder.  I trimmed it down to an angled label and adhered it to the card with foam mounting tape.  Finally I added a sprinkling of ombre red sequins!

I’m trying to get more comfortable using darker shades in my copic coloring…makes me nervous but I really like how it turned out!  Maybe I’ll get brave and do a video soon! 😉 Anyway, thanks so much for visiting and have a wonderful day!
