a Royal Birthday!

Good morning! I hope everyone had a great weekend - us lucky people here in Aus had a long weekend - the Queens Birthday weekend (although It's not actually her birthday then right!)
I hope people had a chance to colour??

I thought it fitting to share a ROYAL birthday card... I've used one of the new Princesses that came out this month from The Greeting Farm.. I think she is my current favourite Anya (this week!) Aussie friends.... You can still purchase your own from the M4M store!!


My TIP for today is to PLAY PLAY PLAY... experiment and Practise.... don't be afraid to make mistakes.... Myself I usually get a colour combination I love and then next thing I know I need a reinker ... mmm.. perhaps it shows that I use the one combination a lot?? lol! Well on this card I used totally new combinations for everything.. and I also chose my paper first so that I could match the colours as well as possible! I think I LOVE this colour combination ... so maybe I will use it again after all! hehe!

another tip??? Don't have a sentiment to fit your creation?? write it yourself with a multiliner!

The Copics I used are:
Skin: R000, R01, E93, R21
Dress: B32, B63, B95 + E93, 95, 97
Crown: Yooo, Y15, Y17, Gold spica
Hair: E23, E18, E44, E29
