Using Copic Markers To Color On Foiled Paper - Hello Cards

Just because we can't see our friends and loved ones right now doesn't mean we can't send them a hello.

My daughter and I made these cards together and since I do not have enough room or chairs in my craft room for us both to work in there I gathered up a bunch of my Copic Markers, put them in Deflecto's Interlocking Marker Organizers and then put them in my Deflecto Caddy Organizer. Added some scissors, adhesives and a few other small items into the caddy containers so I could easily carry it all out to the living room so my daughter and I could spend the day together coloring. 

To create the cards, we first took some Silver Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper and embossed them using the Sizzix 3D Mosaic Gems Embossing Folder. Then my daughter and I started coloring in each of the embossed gems with different colors using Copic Markers. This was the most time consuming part so I was really grateful for my daughters help. Once they were all colored, I cut them down to 5 ¼" x 4" and we adhered them to the front of black card bases using my Xyron Mega Runner.

Next, we die cut out a bunch of hellos using Poppystamps Little Halo Hello die and Poppystamps Luscious Script Die using Rinea Foiled Paper in Silver and Ebony in both starstruck and also glossy.

Then ran all the die cut hellos through my Xyron Creative Station Lite and layered the dies up with their shadow cut and adhered them to the front of the cards.

So overall these really were pretty easy cards to make just took some time to do all the coloring but was relaxing and something fun to do my daughter.

We did half of the cards using brighter colors like this one

 and the other half we colored in more of a pastel palette like this one.
