Coloring a Redhead Marci with Copics

Hi & happy Wednesday!!   Today's card features Fancy Marci from La-La Land Crafts.  She’s available as a digi on the blog, or in rubber in the store.  I don't think I've ever attempted to color red hair before, but I am liking these results! I didn’t follow any tutorials, I just kinda started blindly with some colors I had and it actually turned out  =)  Love it when that happens!  LOL.  I started with Copic #YR24 (Pale Sepia) and colored all her hair.  Then went over most of that, making streaks in the widest parts on the sides with #E08 (brown), which is really more of a rusty, reddish brown.  Then coloring her “part” at the top and the parts close to the ponytail holders using #E25 (Caribe Cocoa) and then smaller sections on top of that brown with #E29 (Burnt Umber).  Then I took the #E08 (brown) again to blend the darker colors into the lighter.  Then to finish off, I took the #YR24(Pale Sepia) and went over the lightest (widest) sections again.

Anywhoo… sorry if I just bored you to death, LOL!  I’m sure a video would be much more thrilling to watch, but there are tons of those on every hair color you can think of if you just Google them.  My papers are from the Bayberry collection (by Pink Paislee) and the twine is from the Twinery!
