Hello ladies!! I haven't been around much lately. I'm uber stressed with about one week of school left!!!

My Copic markers finally came last week and I've been having a blast playing with them.

I colored these stamped images with my Copics. I'm pretty pleased with my work. I'd love to combine these images with some digital backgrounds. That's where I need your help.

Can you help me find some good backgrounds for each of these images?

omg, those are stinkin' CUTE, Gugs!!

Backgrounds-wise... my first thought was Princess of La La Land, and other than that, I'm just kinda thinking out loud here.







 
OMGoodness Samara! Those are the cutest EVER! Where did you get that first print?? I know theres a girl on Etsy somewhere that sells those girlies... link us up!!
 
I ♥ you guys!!! Thanks for the awesome suggestions!!!!

OMG, Andrea.....they were SOOOOOOOO worth waiting for. I am in love. I would marry them if it weren't illegal and I wasn't already married!!! :)


The first stamp is a Gorguss Girl and the second is by Magnolia.
 
OMGosh you colored those with markers?? Wow those are pretty awesome markers. They look like they were painted (of course Im used to having little lines from markers from each stroke you know?) They are really adorable!!

Only suggestion I have is PlumCosmo by Traci Reed.
 
So gorgeous!

I've been debating whether to give these pens a go - but I think they've just made it to my birthday wish list :) ...are they easy to use and blend?

Have you got 'It Girl' by Robin and Christy? It has lots of pinks and purples (with a splash of blue and green too), which I think could go well, particularly for the girl on the grass - but I couldn't find it in the Shoppe (may be it was retired?).
 
Sara-
Really they are incredible. I didn't have much issue with blending. I'm using a premium cardstock though. I use Gina K stock. I know some people have had issue with the markers. Work quickly, plan your colors, and have fun is my advice.


THanks for the advice on the kits, pretty soon I'll make a decision. :)
 
Sara I really wanted the copics but I am so not aq patient person and couldn't stand the thought of getting a few now and then and building up my collection so I looked around and bought ProMarkers instead and I love them and I was able to get them in the UK too.

I went through a huge Magnolia stamp phase a couple of years ago, before they hit the UK, and then went off them when everyone started to do them and sold most of them but now I am loving them again and buying more again :thumbup:
