Summer Solstice

 These are some images I have colored up to use on my summer solstice cards 2022. Yes, as usual, I am running late. I hope I can get these in the mail by Monday. :p

I like this image a great deal. I think it is fun and sassy! I've used it before... but only once, if you can believe that! I used bright colors because I think summer is about bright colors! You can find it in this coloring book. It is by the artist, #TeriSherman from Delicious Doodles. Yay! Finally an image that is not discontinued! LoL

I used the same Copic colors for the necklace, ice cream cone, lenses, skin, lips and hair color:

Necklace: BG07, BG05, R21, R12, R11, silver gel pen

Ice cream cone: E39, E37, E34

Lenses: C8, C7, C6, white gel pen

Skin: E04, E13, E11, E00, R20

Lips: R08, R05

Hair: E49, E47, E44

All the shimmer comes from Stickles glitter glue in Star Dust.

All flower stamens are Liquid Pearls in Buttercup.

Pinks: RV 55, RV34, RV19, RV17, RV09, RV06, RV04

Reds: R08, R05

Eyes: G94, G24, G21

Pinks: RV09, RV06, RV04

Turquoise: BG 07, BG05

Peach: R21, R12, R11

Eyes: BG07, BG05, BG02

Red: R08, R05

Yellow: YG05, YG03, Y18

Eyes: C8, C7, C6

I really liked how this was coming along and when I started working on the last one, I saved the nails and eyeglass frames for last and I liked how the white popped off from all the colors and then I got the bright idea to use Liquid Pearls in White Opal! Yeah! It was only a good idea! I could not get the Liquid Pearls to draw a thin line so all I got was blobs. I will show you so you can learn from my mistake. Don't do an "Ema"! 

Orange: YR09, YR07

Beige: E31, E30 (I was going for vanilla!)

Eyes: E17, E15, E13

Yikes! Learn from my mistake!
