Translucent Past
Plum Royale F/X powder
Today I am combining my love of Stencils with my love of the Copic Markers. This is a different way to use the stencils, by outlining the image with a Micron Pigma .01 Black pen. This creates a "stamped" image. Then you can color the image with your Copic Markers. On this card I used the Umbrella stencil from Dreamweaver stencils again. Then I wanted to have an "It's a Shower" sentiment on the card. There wasn't any available in a stencil, so I combined the words and letters from the Birthday Sentiment Stencil and the word shower from the Rain Words Stencil. I also wanted my sentiment to match the colors of the Copic Markers, so I took the Translucent paste out of the container and mixed in a small amount of the Plum Royale F/X powder. After I mixed it together, I spread it over the words. Because these words were on different areas of the stencil, I needed to allow to dry, before doing another word. To see a step-by-step tutorial of this technique, stop by the Paper Craft Planet Site under the Giveaway and Dreamweaver Thursday Tutorial.

Very beautiful. Your coloring on the umbrella is just spectacular. I love the depth you achieved.
Love the shading of color on your umbrella, and your great tutorial!
I love this Heidi! I would love to watch how you did the copics. Was the stencil in place? Great idea of putting the powders in the translucent paste as well.
Very pretty, Heidi! I like your shading of the umbrealla
Heidi - How original to use the umbrella as a shower invitation!!! Your design is so sweet.
Beautiful card and the coloring you did on the umbrella is wonderful. I think every one needs a lavender umbrella!
I like how you used the paste with the Metallic FX to create a beautiful new color. Very nice.
So sweet Heidi, I love the colors you chose. The umbrella is beautiful! Great layout too.
