Blending and Shading Copic Markers

I have a thing for hedgies. Sort of. I mean, I’m not someone who follows hedgehogs on Instagram or anything. But there’s something about coloring little hedgie stamps that….well, it just makes me wanna buy all the hedgies.

In today’s video, I’ve colored up three of the hedgies in the MFT stamp set. Note that there are a bunch of critters in the set – two of them have scarves so they can be used for Christmas; one holding an acorn for fall; and others holding nothing so they can be used year-round!

For my card designs, I kept them simple; popped the 4″ x 5.5″ panels after attaching a strip of black scrap to the card base. Just that little bit of popping up a panel adds so much! A little bling bling, and it’s all done and ready for the mail!
