Chef Tilda!


Who can resist little Chef Tilda sitting on a rolling pin waiting to cook up some delicious treats? I did a little "mixed media" in coloring this one. I used Copics for her face and did the rest of the coloring of Tilda with Prismacolor pencils. The rolling pin is colored with Copics except for the plaid ribbon. I can sometimes get better control on something like irregular lines with a pencil vice a marker. There are no rules in stamping. No one says you have to color everything with the same media. Sometimes I do a base coat with Copics and then add some dimension with colored pencils. The possibilities are endless!
