\n<\/a>For my very dappled gray & her foal, I put them in my Misti, stamped w\/ Memento, then colored them w\/ Copic markers.

Since the other colors are pretty much shades of each other, I used those Copic colors to color in the grassy area & add a bit of dappling to the lower background.

The stitched rectangles & stitched ovals along w\/ the plain ovals & rectangles were used to die cut the layers & frames.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the Copics I used. (The only reason N3 is there is because C3 was running low on ink & I didn’t want to stop to fill it up.)<\/span>
