Flowery Gnome
Happy Thursday! Today I have this adorable little gnome with a huge beard and some pretty flowers. I colored this up with my Copics and made a card, then went back and colored it up with my Polychromos Pencils also! It is really fun to see them side by side.
Can I tell you how in love I am with these flowers? Yes! there are Nuvo drops on the centers. Good catch.
I told you my little friend has a large beard. There is some pencil over the Copics giving it that awesome texture. I have to say I think this is my best beard so far.
I did not keep track of which Polychromos Pencils I used, so I cannot list them for you. I will do my best to remember to always write them down.

Well that lil gnome is so cute. The flowers are beautiful, touchable. The color blending makes the petals look very soft.
Have a blessed day.
thank you so much Nancy! Did you like the side by side of the Copic vs. the Pencil?
I love Gnomes and this one is no exception. You did a wonderful job with both coloring mediums. I had to go and buy this (and I added many more to my cart) Thank you for the inspiration.
