Owl Friend

It's been a while since I've pulled out my Copics for a card; shown below is a digi image from Tiddly Inks that I colored on Cryogen White paper, a long-time favorite of mine.
Framing my image is a gorgeous paper called Copper Metallic Glossy; I recently purchased two sheets of this paper, and already feel like I want to purchase more backups since I cut into one.  Does anyone else have this hoarding tendency with art supplies?!  Paper Temptress was kind enough to send me the beautiful Autumn Leaves screenprint that I've used here.
There's a lot of shimmer and shine to both the papers, and these photos give some idea of how the brilliant colors change with the lighting.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  :0)

Mandala Card

I'm taking an online course with Dion Dior on using Twinkling H2O's, and this card is my interpretation of one of her lesson plans.  It's an abstract Mandala but my husband thinks it looks like a roulette wheel, lol.   I used 100# paper to frame my painting; the paper is called Whip Cream and I ordered it during the Paper Temptress summer sale.
It's difficult for me to capture the sparkle of the paints, but there's a bit of twinkle throughout the painting.
Thanks for stopping by ~  Ann  :0)
