I still can't get the skin tones right so I've coloured the skin with Copics. They seem to sink into the card tho' so I'm not entirely happy with them either. I've used my Prismas for the rest of the image and added a little blob of Frosted Lace Stickles to the centre of the flower. The sentiment is a Pebbles Inc rub on and the ribbon is from my stash.
I wasn't entirely happy with this although it's growing on me now. I'll admit to being pleased with the colouring under Tilda's feet!
I'd like to enter this card in the Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Use Kraft challenge.
We have another new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' starting today. It's a great theme - Glitter, Sparkle, Bling - All That Glitters, in fact. We have two amazing sponsors offering prizes too - the fabulous Joanna Sheen and Emerald Faeries. Well worth hopping over to have a look, I think!
A short post as we've had a dodgy internet connection here for the past couple of days and I've still got my Sweet Stampin' Spotlight post to finish!
Hope you're having a lovely weekend.
Hugs,
Tracey xx

I love this!! I'm going to have to try colouring on Kraft as I really do love the soft sort of finish it gives. I'm with you re colouring skin tones; I almost always use Copics for skin (and have noted your comments about using them on Kraft; forewarned is forearmed!) Thanks for sharing this little cutie, Donna xx
