CAS Lanterns

I am lovin' my new Copics! This card is really the first time that I have really used them since taking my class in April. I'm still learning how to shade and blend, but I was so happy with the way these lantern came out! The challenge for this card, believe it or not, was the size: 4"x9". This was the requirement for this week's CAS-ual Friday Challenge.
I used cardstock and stamps from this month's Counterfeit Kit. I can't believe the number of projects that I have made so far with this kit-more than all of the others combined, I think! So far, I have made 2 single-page layouts, a double-page layout, and 11 cards! Plus, I have 4 more layouts in mind-just need to get my photos printed! Hopefully I can get those done before the August kit is revealed!

Wow Sherri! Your coloring is amazing. Might I ask what colors your used, especially for the blue? I am in love with it! Well, all of them really!!! LOL Great job.... How did you cut down your card stock to get the right size? I was thinking about participating in the challenge but seriously am embarrassed to say I have no idea how to cut down a sheet of card stock...
