One Boo-Tastic Background!
Hello everyone!
Marie here with a fun mini tutorial for you.
I am doing something a little different today.
I usually focus on color combos – but today,
I am excited to share a Boo-Tastic Background using
the Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Spritzer Tool!

The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black.
A mask was created for the little witch using a post-it note.
The background was created using Copic Alcohol Ink Markers
and the Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Spritzer Tool
(It works best if your brush or chisel is juicy!)
Copic Sketch Markers
Background : T10, YR16
Skin Tones: E000, E00, E11
Hair: T3, T4, T6
Shirt/socks: YR12, YR16
I hope you enjoyed the mini-tutorial.
If you find you enjoy the spritzer background, you may want to think about up-grading to an airbrush system.
I have one and I love it 😀
The spritzer tool gives a slightly different look –
The airbrush system provides a much smoother coverage.
They are both fun and I am totally addicted.
Have a great week and I will see you next Monday, September 22nd.

Great Kylie! I am glad to hear that. I had mine for awhile and the two things that will really help will be to keep your markers WET, WET, WET and have the air (not marker) pointing directly toward the paper! Have fun!
Hugs,
Marie
