Hi there!

Every fashion era has its defining moment, and 1966 was Carnaby Street’s. I wanted this card to capture that mod energy with a softer, modern twist. The little shopper from AALL & Create sets the scene perfectly, her bold outfit standing out against the crisp white building.

For a change of pace, I used my Zig markers with a no-line coloring technique. It softened the edges just enough to keep the look painterly, while the rich purples and blues kept the spirit vibrant and fun. The embossed white building, complete with the number 1966, ties the whole design back to its iconic London inspiration.

✂️ Studio Tip: Try using no-line coloring when you want a softer, hand-painted feel. It gives your stamped images a more natural, illustrated look — perfect for characters and detailed scenes.

Have a wonderfully creative day.
