Doesn't this look like a place you'd like to spend a lazy summer day? The set is called Beach Life from Flourishes and I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black on Flourishes Classic White cardstock, especially designed for copic markers.
I used several different types of marker strokes to create different parts of the coloring with my Copics on this one. Some side to side streaky color on the sky, and some pointillism on the sand and grass. I love the really rich and deep colors. I matched the print from the SEI paper (Jocelyn) to the Morrocan Screen CB folder and then added some beautiful Basic Grey square shaped gems from Flourishes, aren't they just delish? And they go perfectly too and capture that decadent vacation feel. I can almost feel the wind and spray from the ocean!
Here's a pic of the markers I used, because there were so many, if you have trouble reading the numbers, just click on the picture and you can see them larger.
