Black and White Tone


Hello everyone!   I created two Design Team cards for the new CMC challenge.  Join in the fun at Color Me Creative Challenge!  Challenge # 27 will run until September 30th so you have some time!

Your challenge this time is all about

Olde Tyme Photo!!
That means you have to use sepia or black/white colors on your image
WITH
1 small POP of color!!



Dust off  YOUR COPICS, COPIC REFILLS OR COPIC AIRBRUSH SYSTEM (Or ProMarkers if you have them)
to color any image of your choosing but it must be

** SEPIA TONES or BLACK-n-WHITE
WITH A POP OF COLOR!!**

Suzanne Dean suggests the following for Good Copic Colors to use:
Warm Grays or Cool Grays for Black-n-Whites
Sepia Tones-- E44,E43,E42,E41 & E40

Double your pleasure!!!!!  There are two, yes two ways to win!

  2. Love when you post Marie ... I know it's going to be something original and different ... and you didn't fail to amaze me, once again. Love the cardinal with the forest background done in tone-on-tone. The sepia bottles look so vintage and perfect. Your artist talents certainly show through these designs.
