My Card Details:

I love that there are SO many image choices in these coloring books! When my eyes landed on the pearl necklace, I knew I was making a card!

I love the background details as well, but really wanted the focus to remain on her so left it in black and white.

I printed my focal image to 3.5 in by 4.75 in. And the created a card base that was 5x7 in.

While selecting my background design paper and cardstock, I found a sheet of sticker sentiments. Sorry, I don't know where it's from, except that I won some paper & stickers at a Scrapbook Expo a long time ago! Anyway, I loved the sentiment and found a way to add it to my card.

The other reason I enjoyed this card, was because coloring hair is a challenge for me! So I enjoyed the challenge this image presented. Hoping I did justice for all the 'Red-Heads' out there.

COPIC Color Combinations:

Hair: E35; YR27; E08; E19; E09; E97
