Copic coloured pearls

Today's challenge on iCopic lover 44 is to use copics to colour embellishments.

I chose these white pearls:

and coloured some with R29 lipstick red:

The card is a Kanban stamp coloured with copics, using the coloured pearls for flower centres.

I've quite often coloured white flowers with copics, but this is the first time I've coloured white pearls, so I'm linking this for Stampin' sisters in Christ 103 - trying something new, and Phindy's Friday 69: something new, also for Woodware USA 40: try a new technique.

I chose red for the hat and coat for Quirky crafts 11: red hat society - the project must feature a hat and it must be red.

I chose yellow for the flowers for 365 cards day 173: vintage plus yellow.

This is also for:

Polka doodles 33: single layer
Crop stop 33: pearls ... pearls ... and more pearls
Scrappy frogs: time for some bling
Happileigh 36: girly girls
Ooh-la-la 87: no backing paper
Challenge up your life 50: no patterned paper
Nightshift stamping 80: flowers and leaves
Pollycraft 107: autumn colours
Stamps R us: anything goes
Nadia's challenge 12: anything goes
Stamp insanity 73: anything goes
