Copic OZ challenge

Hi everyone this is my submition for the Copic OZ challenge. I almost ran out of time but I'm really happy with the result, still room for improvement of course, the photo dosen't really do it justice.
What have I used
The image is a Shirley Wilson image that I sourced from one of her books for folk art. Shirley does some wonderful art work. I had to resize the art work so that I could use it on a card but that was all, so I guess it is the same as digi stamps.
Card:SU Whisper White, Crushed Concord, Pumpkin Pie, and Elegant Eggplant
Ink: SU Crushed Concord, Elegant Eggplant
Stamps: As mentioned above a Shirley Wilson image sourced from her book"PS I Love You" book one by Jean Myers and Shirley Wilson circa 1994
Copic Markers: Just a quick note to tell you how I arrive at my colour combinations. First I print or stamp the image on an A4 sheet of either SU Whisper White or Express It paper and heat set the image if I have printed it. I then grab my Copic colour chart and look to see what colours I need to blend well. I do swatches down the side of the A4 paper and when I have a combination I'm happy with I write the numbers of the markers over the top. It took two goes for the pumpkins and three swatches for the leaves.
Pumpkins;Y21, Y38, YR07, YR04 + E57 for twig arms 
Leaves; G85, YG11, YG63, YG91, E05. E95
Hat; C01, C05, C07, C09 + E04 to add a little colour to the hat band.
Embelishments: Kaiser rhinestones orange and black, black and white gingham ribbon (from Crazy Clarks)
Accessories: Cuttlebug embossing folder pumpkins, Spellbinders Boardabuilities die.
 Hope this has inspired you to grab your Copic Markers and have a go.
You can get a better view of the card on my SCS gallery, link below.

Hi everyone I've been a little quite of late work getting in the way of creating, but this weekend I spent a whole day with friends making these twelve Christmas cards and yes just before we go further there are only ten. The last two will come sometime soon. I decided not to rush them.

The very talented Katie from Scrapbook City created twelve Tim Holtz inspired Christmas cards and we spent from 9am to 5pm puddling around in alcohol and distress inks having a ball with a very nice lunch in the middle and the end result is ...
