Good morning and welcome to a very special blog hop!
I am excited to

Authors Colleen Schaan and Marianne Walker have partnered up again with the

From light source to shading and shadows, to mixing mediums and tackling
detailed images, this book shows how to take your colouring up one notch further…
by focusing on the fine details. All of the information is presented in an
easy-to-follow format.
An included CD contains all of the hand-drawn images used in the tutorial
section of the book, along with the assembly instructions for all of the
projects.
Each participating designer is hopping today to give you a peak at their
favourite project from the book - and a chance to WIN your own autographed

Here is my card that appears in the book
showcasing no-lines stamping and incorporating both Copic and coloured pencils
To help kick off the celebration of the new book... each designer on the

Wow! Love the idea of learning no lines stamping! And all of the other fabulous information in this book. Thanks for the chance to win!
Loved the no line coloring. I have the other 3 copic coloring books and love a chance to win the 4th. Thanks for the opportunity.
Wow! Love the no line look. Would very much like to know how you did that.

Wow..I love the Copic and colored pencils. Just stunning
What a beautiful stamped and colored image! I have never tried this technique, but I will try it! Hopefully, I can win a copy of this book to help me!
Great picture of Matilda. I'm curious about the stamping without lines thing. I hope I win a book so I can find out more about this. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love my Copics but still need much practice. I think your image is beautiful! I am excited about the new book.
Very cute card. I would love to have this book, as I do have other Annie's Copic Coloring Books. I am rusty at doing copic shading, as all my card making supplies have been stashed away for a little over two years with our busy lifes of building our own home. We are now in, but have lots of outside projects to finish, so card making is on the back burner, as our summer is so short and the snow will be flying soon.
Wow Jane, your work in print! Congratulations and very well deserved. Your colouring is fantastic, beautiful no lines colouring.
I've not plucked up the courage to try this technique yet, but have bought memento desert sand in readiness :)
Hugs, Janine xx
How exciting. I'd love to win this book because I need it. Thanks for this chance.
I can' wait to get my hands on this new book. Fab coloring. Oh my goodness. Thank you for giving us a chance to see your beautiful work.
I would love to win this book, and learn all the newest techniques.

Just beautiful! I would be so lucky to get a copy of that book. You don't need it, but I sure do! LOL!
Wow, your card is beautiful! I have never tried no-line stamping but I love the look of it and would love to learn! Thanks for the opportunity to win this fabulous 4th book! I have the first three so it would be awesome to win this one!
Such an adorable card! It would be amazing to have the book that is autographed by all of you!!
Beautiful card! I love your coloring.
I absolutely love your card. I'm amazed at the no lines technique, but have yet to try it in my own coloring. My favorite part is how you've incorporated the non-traditional fall colors (teal and purple) from the paper in her clothes to make it all coordinate.
Awesome! I really like the line free stamping!
So proud of you sweetie! Wow, are you doing autographs? But then I always knew you were brilliant!! Hugs Squirrel xx
I would dearly love to win this edition of the "Copic Coloring Guides." I have the first three and they have been very helpful.
