Colored 'lil Houses... Make it Monday

Another week, another Make it Monday challenge. This week we were asked to color on non-neutral cs.  Copics make this easy to do, blending is a little different, but you can quickly color or hightlight an image by stamping on colored cs first. The Papertrey Ink Blog has a great tutorial on this.
I pulled out the sweet, whimsical set, Wonderfully Whimsical.  It's been a long time since I pulled this one out. The images are small, so it was harder to show shading with my copics, but I did.
PTI card stock I used was Spring Rain, Sweet Blush, Lemon Tart, Aqua Mist and Spring Moss.  You'll see I added a little outline to the clouds, and softened that line with the colorless blender.  I also added a bit of accent to my designer paper scallop.
Oh, and I couldn't resist adding in a ric rac border.  Gotta get those die-cuts in. Thanks for stopping by today.

    This is an adorable card Lisa. You did a great job on the shading. I know how small those little houses are. I love the added little detail to the clouds and rick rack is one of my favorites.
