7 Kids Crafts: You are Special

Hello Everyone!

I hope you are having a nice day.

Also, I'm happy that Kelly has restocked Kylee's Unicorn because it's such a pretty set to play with and actually one of my very favorites. I have colored another image from the set for Artist Trading Cards I made before you can check it out here: http://kattyxotica.blogspot.com/2019/02/7-kids-crafts-unicorn-atc.html and I even made a video with the ATC share here: https://youtu.be/Qm-uZB1bep4
This Kylee's Unicorn set just makes me think of clean and positive magical beings. When I get a chance to color any either image from the set I always think of using the colors of the rainbow. 

I used Distress Oxides to create the background

and then I smeared and buffed some white pigment ink 

to form the clouds. As the white ink over the clouds dried

I noticed that the opacity started to fade and some of the color

from the oxides showed but I actually like the effect.

To emphasize that the lighter color were clouds I just used a white 

gelly roll to draw the silhouette of clouds.

Here is a close-up of the unicorn using Copic markers 

on Copic paper. The hair was also colored with Copic markers

but I used the ZIG Wink of Stella pens with their matching Copic 

colored hair strands. For the Eyelashes, I went a little safer

and just went over with a black colored pencil.

Copic:

RV0000, Y00, G00, BV000, BG10

V15, B05, YR04, Y08, R17, G09

I fussy cut the unicorn and stamped the image on my background

to keep some of the little details on her crown that stick out

but are too thin for me to cut over. 

I colored those little thin crown details in green.

There are other Picket Fence Studio sets at 7kidscrafts.com

just click the link. 

Don't forget that this week we have opened

the Sweet November vault over at 

7 Kids Crafts but they are only available 

for just this week.

Thank you so much for visiting!
