Pumpkins and Pears

Hello again!  Back to Thanksgiving today because I just couldn't resist coloring another one of my new Power Poppy digis from Marcella's October Digital Blitz -- 10 new additions!.  This one is Pumpkins and Pears.




The Copic markers in the picture are only a few of the many I used for coloring -- not just for blending, but for layering one color on top of another to create a whole new color.




That's a sentiment from a Power Poppy clear stamp set on the front.  I saved the "Happy Thanksgiving" that comes with Pumpkins and Pears for the inside.  Sigh... love these fall colors.

ps: 

Have a happy day!

What a lovely thanksgiving card! Your coloring is simply gorgeous! The pumpkins look so real!! I like the small XXXXX's. Is that a die? So cute!

Kathy Krug said...

Wow so beautiful. since I have been taking lessons with Amy I am noticing little details like the hint of blush on the pears and the the dark areas and highlights. The blue and orange really work together.

I'd have to say that you are bestest Copic colorer that I have ever seen - this is amazing! I would love to sit and watch you work your magic! I love the papers you chose to finish your card with, too.

Gorgeous card Leslie, but that is no surprise, you have a gift of coloring with Copics.
Love the different tones of orange and yellow mixed with the greens of the pears and leaves, the touch of blue from the flowers really makes the whole image pop beautifully.
The cross stitch die is just the perfect frame for this delightful image.
Beautifully done, my friend.

All the highlights, from the stand, to the pears, just melt my heart. I love seeing your coloring in all your designs, but I think my faves are the nature scenes from Marcella. BEAUTIFUL! hugs, de

Beautiful card. Your coloring and shading is fabulous. It has such a lighter feel than most cards which gives it a happier look.

This digi is just gorgeous and so love the coloring you have done on it, you just know how to bring it all to life that's for sure, I don't think I have ever been able to color and make a new color unless it was brown, LOL! Love the papers you chose to compliment your coloring perfectly!

Cindy Beach said...

I am always blown away by your coloring, Leslie - it's beautiful no matter what medium or technique you use! I'm too impatient to do all the layers - and I don't have your talent! It is such a treat to study the highlights shading and rich depth of your colors on those pumpkins. Beautiful digital images too. The cross stitched die is a great accent!

Pauline said...

How in the heck did I miss this post! Wow! this is stunning. Leslie you do great things with your copics, you can colour like no other! These pumpkins are so real looking, they way you add your shading and highlights just blows me away! I love how you kept this simple - absolutely love this!

Stacy Morgan said...

Leslie the rich colors and the depth is perfect. You sure did color up the new one nicely and kept the focus on your fabulous coloring of Marcy's handy work. Beautiful!

Traci M said...

I love your card, Leslie...perfect mix for Fall and unusual shades you achieved by combining your Copics. There is so much saturation of color and I could get lost in soaking up all the pretty details in Marcy’s illustrations. Just adore this!!

Hi Leslie!
I think this is the first time I am visiting your blog! I love
how you colored this image! The sentiment is so crisp! Is it stamped, or is it done by computer?

I love the colors in your little flowers! I am always looking for good combos. I am VERY
new to Copic coloring. Would you please be willing to share which markers you used on the lovely violets? Thank you for considering this request!

He IS Able!
