Krista Smith has been one of my favourite stamp/digital stamp illustrators for years. I love to print her images at larger sizes and go to town with colouring. I recently subscribed to her Patreon, and am once again adding her work to my collection! If you’re a fan, Patreon is a great way to support Krista and other creators, and I believe Krista has also started selling her images via her Etsy shop again too. I’ve linked both below.
Broom Witch Card
This card would be perfect either for Halloween or a fun birthday. I’m a believer in sending fun witchy greetings whenever you feel like it! If you would like to see how I added all the sparkle to her hat and coat, I have included a video below showing the technique on a different image. You will also find a full list of Copic marker and pencil colours used below.

So sparkly! My card is A5 size (14.8cm x 21cm)
I printed the image on my favourite Make it Colour Blending Card before colouring with Copic Markers. I then added some extra shading and definition using Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils*. The sparkle was added using Copic Spica Glitter Pens* and a Sakura Classic White Gelly Roll pen*.
