Do you happen to have a tutorial on how you go about making these? Do you use colored construction paper and just use marker to paint on the different values, or do you start with white as your basis and 'paint' them all?

I use solid color scrapbooking paper and/or acid free card stock. I then paint in the details with gouache paint (gouache can be as opaque as acrylic -- nice for highlights -- or watered down to work like water color -- nice for shadows).
I haven't made an actual paper crafting tutorial, though I think I should add it to my project list. I just haven't decided if I want to do a step-by-step photo tutorial or do a video recording. Suggestions? I did make this one, though, about how I go about painting shadows and blush on my little paper characters: tracyblank.deviantart.com/art/…

Very beautiful! The colors and textures look lovely. The design style is a little reminiscent of Mary Blair, a Disney conceptual artist back in the 40's and 50's. Very cool!

Love the painted details. So subtle, but so effective in giving the piece life! Do you use gouache or watercolor?

I did meet Katie Griffin and gave her a gift that I drew at Sac-Anime. She enjoyed it, lol. Anyways, very nice picture.
