  Hello everyone! Truth be told, I'm not a huge fan of slimline cards. That being said they do allow for a larger image, especially if the image is tall like this beautyful ballerina from Mo's digital pencil. I love her! Also I just figured out I can change the black lines of an image for no-line coloring. And although this image for no-line did intimidate me, sometimes you just gotta give it a go. Right?! Copics used: E13, E11, E21, E00, E000 E71, E74, E79 W7, W5, W3, W1 R85, R83, R81, RV10 For the background I used Victorian velvet oxide ink, first blended lightly then to stamp flowers from Poppystamps Blooming greetings. The sentiment is from the same set and white heat embossed on some brown grey cardstock that I die cut using My favorite things Elegant rectangle die. Please let me know in the comments if you like doing no-line coloring? Thanks for stopping by! Stay safe, and happy crafting!

I also have some RV06 on this, but I didn't use that part for this card. I wanted some glitter in my strawberry shake, so before the ink dried I simply added some Lawn Fawn chunky glitter. I didn't know if the glitter would stick, but it did! After it dried I cut the cup part. The whipped cream is cut from white cardstock and I decided to add sprinkles with my RV02 copic marker and I also added Spun sugar oxide ink along the edge. The straw was also cut from white cardstock and colored with Copics RV09 an...
