Showcase 'Coco'

Hello girls,

How are you? Lately the weather here is so not friendly, very hot and very humid, and as the result I got knocked out with cold. Fortunately lots of sleeps and eat lots of foods always help me get back healthy quickly lol. I hope all of you stay healthy there!
Anyway, today we want to show you our DT works using 'Coco Series.' She's one of our new digi girl. She's a shy and dreamy girl but very nice and dilligent. And somehow she always attract small animals to gather around her :) And here's our gorgeous DT's creations using this digi.

Colour Tute #2 by Mary J

Hi Girls,

How is your summer? Lovely? We hope so :) We also have nice hot summer day here.. Oh, wait.. we always have hot day since we live at tropical country, lol. Sometimes we wish we could move to a four seasons country and experiencing the winter for once. But, because our body's tolerance to cold  is very low, we're afraid we'll freeze to death there!

Anyway, today, we will continue to feature one of our talented DT lady; Mary J's tutorial. The first part of her tute can be found here. If in the first part of the tutorial she show how to color the skin, now she'll show you step by step how to color the hair part. So, here's the second part of the tutorial ^^

Ps: Don't forget to join our coloring challenge, you don't even have to make a card to join. Just pick one of our digi (the free ones are allowed too) and color it according to the color pallete provided ^^

Mary J here with a quick tute on colouring wavy hair with Copic Markers. So, first I select my colours - here I am using E31, E33, E35 and E37. First, using my lightest, E31, I cover the whole hair...

I then take the next darkest E33 and colour where the darker parts of the waves in her hair will be...

I then use the next darkest E35 to colour the darkest part of the hair waves...

I go back and use my lightest colour E31 to blend the colours together...

Now I want to create even more depth. I take my darkest colour E37 and put in the very darkest areas in her hair...

And finally using light strokes I lightly blend the darkest areas where I have used E37 with E35 into the E35 areas and E33 where I have used E35 into the E33 areas (if that makes sense!!). Et voila, the finished hair...

Hope that was useful! Leave any questions you have in the comments and I'll get back to you!

Coloring Challenge#1

And so, let's start our first new challenge, A COLORING CHALLENGE ^^ Are you ready? For this challenge, we just want to see your colouring skills! So share anything you want - it doesn't have to be a completed project (a partially coloured MCS image is fine!), but you do have to use a MilkCoffee Stamp digis!

Feel free to use the freebie we have provided her, or there are plenty of free digis we offer - click here [link to freebie posts] to use them or any other MCS stamps you own!

This challenges will run monthly, starting from the 10th of each month and ending on the 9th of each month. We will pick the winner by random.org and the winner will receive 3 images by your choice from MILKCOFFEE shop.

So, use a MCS digi stamp and use at least 3 of the colours of the palette below...

All you have to do is to color the image according this palette and then link the result here. No need to make any card, just the colored image is enough ^_~ And this week, we will feature Mary J's coloring tutorial :) Her tutorial will be separated in 2-3 post, and we will show you the first part of her tutorial here.

~Coloring Tutorial~

It's Mary J here and I've put together a quick tute together to show you how to colour folds in clothing, so let's get to it!  I've used Lisbeth Walks In The Rain as she's such a pleasure to colour in and the first thing I do is choose the colours I'm going to use - RV00, RV10 and RV02.  That is in order of lightest to darkest (yes, RV10 is lighter than RV02!).


Okay, so first I cover the dress all over in the light shade I've chosen, RV00.  I like to do the base colour first as it gives me a feel of the flow of the dress as I colour it in (click on the photos for a larger view)...

I then use the darkest shade, RV02, and add to the darkest shaded areas of the dress...

I then use the mid-shade, RV10, and lightly blend the edges of the darkest areas into the lighter areas with light feathery strokes...

And lastly, I go over the whole dress with the lightest colour, RV00, to soften all the edges...

Et voila!  I hope you found that useful - feel free to leave a comment with any questions and I'll get back to you!
