Saturday Sketch Challenge

 I had a wonderful afternoon yesterday.  I watched a couple of Copic Coloring Tutorials on U Tube and then sat and colored and colored.  I didn't want to make any cards, I just wanted to color.  I needed to practice my hair coloring techniques and I had several "Free" Saturated Canary images Krista posted. on her blog.  I chose to color Ava, and color her I did.  I colored one with black hair and one with blue coloring and one brunette.  As you can see only the brunette made it to the card.  The blue haired one almost made it, but I will try again to master it.  I am not sure I will ever master black hair, but Turtles do not give up .....

This cute little Ava came with a balloon.  I chose to cut that off.  It doesn't suit the theme of the card I am sending.  It was very easy to remove so this little gal is really versatile to craft with.  Can't give you anymore details because the card is in the mail and the recipient hasn't received it yet.  .)  If you would like to have Ava for yourself, just click here.  Krista is so kind to have posted several beautiful little girls for us to color for FREE!  She is trying to give back this year.  She is working to put together a project with St. Jude's Hospital for children.  Click on the badge in the upper right corner of my sidebar for all the details.  Check it out.  It is an opportunity for you to put a smile on some children's faces and know that your artwork put that smile there!

Ok card details:  Copics, of course, image colored on my fav, Irridescent Cryogen White from Paper Temptress.  Cardstock is DCWV and it was a scrap, I didn't even have to cut a new piece.  Yeah Me! DP is a scrap from my stash and unfortunately I don't have the name.  Flower punch is EK Success, Dies are Spellbinders, embossing folder is Cuttlebug, ribbon is American Crafts, Rose and gems are from my stash.  Everything I used on this card is from my stash.  Yeah for me.  Trying to use it up so I can buy more.  OOPs, I mean use it up so I don't waste the money I already spent. ROTFL.  Check back tomorrow for my post and you will see what I am talking about.

I made this card following a sketch on Sketch Saturday.  I thought it was so lovely, I didn't make any alterations.
