Art Impressions Wuff Set

Hello AI Fans!!

I actually took a little break today from the Christmas and Winter cards to show you a little something I made for the up and coming Valentine's Day holiday!  I love making homemade treats, so I am always looking for cute ways to present them to the recipient. And I think the cutie patootie Wuff Set from Art Impressions is perfect for a sweet Valentine, don't you??!!

After I finished coloring her, I used my Copic blender pen to create some texture on her fur.

 

Copics used:  E35, 37, 39, 51, 53 ;  R81, 83, 85, 89

I also enhanced the Copic coloring with chalk pastel pencils.
