So cute. Love the squirrel playing in the leaves. Jungle critters next would be great. Hugs, Julie.

Super adorable scene card! Love that squirrel rolling in the leaves! So cute that you’ve made him the center of attention! Awesome coloring as always! Thank you for sharing your Copic favorites. Tfs Hugs, Christine

[@christygetscrafty]

Yay! So glad you liked the card, Christine!😀

[@janeralph9853]

I got a good giggle when you said you lifted the skunk’s head and the squirrel’s tail to make room for your pumpkins. I’m glad it wasn’t the other way around, you might have gotten a surprise.🤣

[@christygetscrafty]

Hahahahahaha! I love that! It never even occurred to me, but that is too funny!

[@wendysalley3924]

So adorable! That moose is too cute. I love that little squirrel in the leaves. Thank you for doing this series.

[@christygetscrafty]

You are so welcome! I’m glad you’re enjoying it!☺️

[@annholliday4489]

I enjoy your commentary because it gives your reasons why you use certain markers & your thought process. I enjoy your videos & thank you for going slow for us beginners!

[@christygetscrafty]

I’m so happy you’re finding it helpful, Ann!😀 Thank you so much for watching!

[@shellykingham8381]

Your little stories are always so cute! Of course the mouse needs up front so he can see!

[@christygetscrafty]

Hehe! Yes of course! I’m kind of short too, so I know how he feels.😉

[@mariehoney31]

That moose is just too cute...and of course, so is that squirrel! Cute card!! :)

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you! I love them both too!💕

[@samanthamann1523]

oh my goodness gracious!!! these critters!! swoon!! LOVE them!! LOVE your tutorials!!! lov the coloring and sweet, adorable, cute fall scene!

[@christygetscrafty]

Aw, thank you so much, Sam! I really appreciate that!

[@lauracorkill9543]

I feel like I'm color challenged and visit your YT channel all of the time for color inspiration. These Copic Favorites videos are awesome and have inspired me to make tags with each type of critter stamped on each one, the written color combos and a swatch. Thank you!!! 🥰

[@christygetscrafty]

I’m so glad you enjoy this series! I do plan on doing some more, but my acute tendonitis has put the more coloring-heavy videos on hold for a little bit. Hoping to get back to them soon!😊

[@CarrieRhoades]

Your coloring is so smooth! Thank you for sharing these color combos, I’ve really enjoyed it!

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much! I’m so happy you found it helpful!☺️

[@prpolk1]

Too cute. I think my favorite critter was the frog. Loved the way you colored it plus green is my favorite color. At some point I’ve got to go through your videos to get my favorite green color combos. I’m learning a big lesson about just buying copic markers without fully thinking it through. Well done!

[@christygetscrafty]

Aw, how fun! I love green too!💚 So happy you’re enjoying my videos!

[@maggieruy]

Oh! Your scene building skills🤗… Amazing.

[@christygetscrafty]

Aw, thanks so much!🥰💕

[@anikamercier2651]

Love this! Critters are my fave so I loved seeing how you colored yours. So cute! I'd love to see farm critters next!

[@christygetscrafty]

Thanks so much for weighing in, Anika!😀

[@debiv7834]

Such a sweet and colorful card! ❤️

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much, Debi!🙂

[@fansyr8050]

Another beautiful colorful card❣ I'm hoping you one day you can make a chart for the 3 or 4 color combo set in each color family for Copic, so we can see which numbers go well together and many mix color families and still have a good combo for coloring. I hope I'm making some sense here. 😁 Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤

[@christygetscrafty]

Oh man, I have no idea how to make charts. I would have to enlist some help on that one for sure. But something I’ll keep in mind for down the road. Right now my schedule is so unbelievably full, I’ll have to just file it away for the future. Thanks so much for watching!☺️

[@stampinwithsafia]

I just found your channel and I love it! I’m transitioning from Stampin Up to coloring critters and making more scene cards and this is exactly what I was looking for. Your Copic tutorials are fabulous! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@christygetscrafty]

Oh, I’m so glad you found my channel and are enjoying it! That is so great to hear! Thank you so much for letting me know.😀

[@karengerek643]

Moose & Friends is the very first set I purchased from HBB....because I had watched your video using it a few years ago. Not only do I continue to learn from you, but you've introduced me to new stamp companies that I truly adore using. The moose and skunk are my favorites; however, my skunk never turns out as well as yours does (no surprise there). Be well -

[@christygetscrafty]

I still adore that set, even though I was disappointed on how that first card came out. I didn't like how I did the balloon strings. But I was much happier with the results on this card!

[@cheriereighard733]

Thank you for your detailed, inspirational video. We usually go to the zoo in the Fall. Zoo or jungle animals would be great, but I love all you videos.

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much for weighing in, Cherie!🙂

[@mecheledunlap4301]

Beautiful coloring of the animals, enjoying this series, do farm animals & also jungle animals as #3&4

[@christygetscrafty]

Thanks so much, Mechele!

[@marthamiller6116]

So many great tips as always!

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much, Martha!☺️

[@carolnelson7107]

Thank you Christy for sharing your favorite color combos. I work with a lot of critters too. I've struggled with buying my markers, color swatches on sights aren't true to the colors. I love watching you color and seeing the actual colors on paper. Thanks again

[@christygetscrafty]

Well I really hope this helps! I know it can be difficult to find the right colors so I hope I’m making it a little easier.🙂

[@carolnelson7107]

@@christygetscrafty Yes Christy your videos have made it a lot easier. I take notes while I'm watching. Thank you

[@leonaashby2677]

These are so helpful- thank you!

[@christygetscrafty]

I’m so glad you think so!😊

[@RhondaMiller]

This is so cute.

[@christygetscrafty]

I'm so happy you like it!

[@TheLovelyrosepetal]

I love it! It's such a cute and fun card! I love how you colored the critters and how you put your scene together! Your ideas for keeping your color combos was a great one and is how I do it. I also loved how you picked and combined different images from so many stamp sets to make your scene. Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity with all of us!

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much for those insightful words, Rose!❤️ I appreciate you!

[@tammykloss7132]

Love it!

[@christygetscrafty]

Thank you so much!☺️

[@tanyareilly8807]

I'm loving this series, thank you!

[@christygetscrafty]

That is so nice to hear!😊

[@elizabetheddy1073]

Christy this is awesome! I’m still trying to figure out which colors are the best for what I’m coloring! I use Sandy Allnocks chart to help me, but sometimes it’s just a little frustrating. I wish I had my favorite combos in my head, I guess the more I color the easier it will get! Thank you so much for always being such a huge inspiration! 😊❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@christygetscrafty]

Definitely it will! I’ve been coloring for ten years almost daily. It takes practice, but you’ll get there! So glad you are enjoying the series!😀

[@elizabethpetersen5568]

Thank you for this series of your favorite Copic combos. It’s very helpful. What nibs do you use on your copics? I’m finding I can’t get a sharp little amount of a darker color. My nibs seem more “full, rounded.” Maybe I need to change out lots of nibs.

[@christygetscrafty]

Most of mine still have their original nibs, but if they get too soft or get little fibers hanging off the end, I replace them. I've replaced maybe a dozen over the past ten years.

[@bournonville13]

I do little dot papers where i do a dot of the color and ad the copic Number, and i write on the paper what stampset i used Them on, and the put the paper in a book, easy for next time i need a color. Thank you for the really helpful videos ❤️ What papers do you use with your copic, for me naanah does not work, im using paper called 4cc 200, it does not soak up so much color, and makes it easy to blend, not like neenah thats makes the colours bleen easy🤔 would love to see a video with your Best tips on using neenah or other papers.

[@christygetscrafty]

I discuss papers in the first video in this series! Thanks so much for watching. :)

[@fauvevanmaanen]

Thank you so much for sharing. This is a wonderful reference for purchasing copics in stages. They are expensive and this way it is easier to choose. May i ask what sleeves you are using for your stamps? Are these the Avery Elle L and XL?

[@christygetscrafty]

I use the Avery Elle for the large and the MFT ones for the extra large. :)

[@fauvevanmaanen]

@@christygetscrafty thank you 💓

[@charylhodges470]

❤️ I pretty sure you have probably mentioned which paper you prefer for Copics coloring but I don't remember, could you reply to me with your preferred brand pls.

[@christygetscrafty]

I mention it in the first video in this series. But I prefer either the Neenah Solar White (there are several but I mention in the video which one. I always get confused too! Lol!) or the Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Premium White. But I think that might be discontinued and they just sell the Neenah as well now. You can get a sample pack of the one I use from Lawn Fawn. I have links in the description bar to everything in that first video. Hope that helps!😊
