I thought I would dig out an old image and play with it. I have been seeing cards in the gallery lately with old SU sets that I own (but now I consider them old and done with) but they have new life because people are coloring them with copic markers, and I was thinking I could do the same with this image by Penny Black.
I used the color challenge colors (baja breeze, very vanilla, kiwi kiss) - but because I have not bought all the new "in colors" (SU!), I had to find alternates using Prism Papers because I have LOTS of those. Anyway, I think I pretty close to right with this combination:

I used the marker tip to tip technique when coloring the image because I did not have an exact match copic marker (I used new leaf (YG23) touched to olive (G99) to get the scarf color match on the green part). It worked really well and I would recommend trying this if you don't have a bazillion copic markers. I used jade green (G00) and then went over it with Warm Grey No. 1 (W-1) to dull it down a bit and get the right color. I think it matches really well. I wish I had a couple shades darker than that jade, but close enough right? I used stickles on the shaded parts and on the snowflakes. It shines and is so pretty in real life. Oh and edges of the background paper as well as the main image paper were distressed and sponged with bordering blue ink. Sketch was taken from Jen DelMuro's site -- it was her SFYTT. I think it worked perfectly with this image!!!
