Seahorses & a Sea of Gold


Stamp: Ching-Chou Kuik's "The Seahorse"

For my card I used the latest from Ching-Chou's circular collection, 'The Seahorse' with some of the new Crate Paper 'Restoration' line. Okay, maybe it is not a sea of gold, but this Copic combo is one of my favorites for a warm, golden background. I mixed Y32 and a little bit of YR85. That bright pink is one of Copic's fluorescent markers, FRV1. Love this color! Her hair is mostly BG0000 & B00, with a little bit of BG01, YG11, YG03 and some random Stickles in Icicle. The shadowy outline was done with E70 which is a great option when you need something more subtle than a grey.
