Fruit Basket
Here is another sample for this weekend’s sketch challenge.
This time I turned the layout and used the sketch horizontally.
I made the card when I made the card shown on Friday and used the same cardstock, ribbon and paper.
The image is from The Saltbox Studio and it is colored with Copic Markers. I am having fun playing with those.
Unfortunately my air can ran out while spraying the outside, so I sponged around the basket with Bashful Blue and added some specks with the Color Spritzer tool. I already ordered more air cans and preordered a compressor. The Air Brush System for the Copic Markers is the coolest thing. I LOVE playing with it (obviously since I already ran out of air). Even my 13 year old, deep voice talking, 6′ 2″ tall son Austin thought it was AWESOME. Mom got some cool tools! Once I am hooked up with air again, I will take some pictures and show you just how cool it is.
Here is a closeup of my coloring.
I used E55 and E57 for the basket, YG000 and Y13 for the pears, R14 and E55 for the red apples, Y14, YG03 for the green apples and YG13 and YG99 for the leaves.
The fun thing about coloring with the copics is that you can layer, layer and layer more colors on top of each other to blend them together.






Love your coloring with the Saltbox Studio image!!! Just gorgeous!

This is beautiful, and your coloring is awesome! I ran out of air in my can as well, and haven’t replaced it yet.
Fabulous card! Love how you turned it on its side. Also love those brads punched through a different piece of cardstock on top, I’ve never thought to do that!
Beautiful Beate! I love it!
Gorgeous Beate!!! I’m loving the colors and how you twisted the sketch!
Gorgeous! I just ran out of “air” too! Just ordered a new can a couple of days ago!
Ohmygoodness, girl! There you go again! This is the most stunning card I have ever seen! Wow! It’s just beautiful! Love it! I’m seriously going to have to get that airbrush! Beautiful! TFS and have a great day!
