Purple Pisces Color Challenge 311

Happy Tuesday!  This week I have a color challenge card made for CAS Colours & Sketches.  Super fun colors - Blackberry Bliss, Pool Party and Highland Heather.

This is one of the Zodiac Girls from Stamping Bella and I thought it would be fun to blend that tail!  I used Copic markers color matched to the challenge colors as a base. Because this stamp has some very fine areas I did most of my blending and shading with Prismacolor pencils.

 In this photo you can see the base shading with the markers in her skirt and the more detailed shading in her tail after I used my pencils.  Although I often use markers for the final detail shading and don't use pencils at all, I find pencils very calming to use.  And when I have an image like this, pencils are the perfect choice for me!

Because this is a mermaid I HAD to add Wink of Stella, but just to the Highland Heather areas.  Then I used some epoxy dots as "water" droplets. To give a soft background, I used Pool Party to stencil the fish scale pattern.
