Tutorial – Creating Texture

Hey everyone!  Peggy here today and I am going to show you how I create texture with my Copic markers when I color animals.  I find coloring fur a little tricky, so I like to use this technique when I do use animal images.

First I collect everything I will need.  Today I have used the new digi stamp Waiting for Christmas, I thought this adorable little kitty would be perfect!  As you can see I have a collection of different materials and ribbon that I use to create texture depending on what I am doing.

Next I color the part of the image I want to have texture, make sure you color this first or you will get texture on other parts of your image.

Once you have finished coloring add a little colorless blender to the fabric or ribbon you want to use and press down on the image a few times, you can clean up any ink that bleeds out with your colorless blender pen.

I then color the rest of my image how I want it and make my finished card.

I love the look and how easy it is to do and how you can use any fabric scraps you might have laying around!

I hope you all have a great crafty day!
Hugs,
Peg
