Perfect Pearls sweet mouse

Perfect pearls & cut dies to make a stunning background.

As a colorist I have to stretch my imagination to create interesting backgrounds. After coloring with Copic markers, I mounted the MO’s digital pencil panel to this icy background.

Passion for Markers challenge submission

This was actually pretty simple. I used pad to paper with versamark embossing ink. Then with a soft brush, spread perfect pearls all around. Once it was dry, I misted with hairspray to keep it all in place. Then I cut snowflakes from their dies and glued them directly to the panel.

Have you tried this technique? Comment below. I’m always looking for ways to stretch my supplies.
