Fairy Birthday - Copics and Shimmer

First, let me say what's on my heart this morning: GO CATS!!! woo hoo!! Instant Classic basketball game last night! Yep. I bleed purple! EMAW!!!

Now, on to my first adventure with Copic markers. My friend, Heather, got a couple of sets so she let us try them out. Wow - I can see why everyone wants them. I didn't do much blending with this image from TAC's Fairy Birthday because I liked her light and airy but I colored some others and wowza - amazing blending and I felt like an "artiste". I added a little shimmer to her wings, her hair and her dress. I love the stardust clear gelly pen for that effect. I shot this in the window light and it really caught the hair shimmer - it wasn't quite this noticeable in "real life". LOL! Large labels nestabilities and a little bling in the corners finished off the sweet birthday card. What do you think?

Happy Stamping and Go Cats!!!
