How is everyone? I hope you're all keeping warm and safe - to anyone whose been suffering from the snow, I hope you're life hasn't been too disrupted. I have to admit I love the snow and as I walk everywhere anyway it's not been too much of a pain - I just dug out the walking boots :)
Anyway, enough of this rambling. Today's card is a just because - mainly because I wanted to practice colouring hair and I find that the delicious Saturated Canary images are perfect for this.
I settled on the beautiful Rose Red (mainly because I have yet to use her in a project) and set about trying to get some depth and tone in her hair - I'm relatively pleased with how it turned out. It actually has more range and depth in reality but the light levels when I photographed it were awful!
I then decided to keep the colour palate as simple as I could and used lots of blues- which isn't my usual go to choice. I layered the image on plain blue card stock and settled on a beautiful background from Bunny Zoe and a sentiment from the same collection. Some blue ribbon a couple of silver pips and a couple of circles covered in glitter finished the layout.
I used the following Promarkers: burnt orange, terracotta, spice, apricot, ivory, blush, pastel pink, moss, duck egg, cool aqua, sky blue, pastel blue, henna, caramel, cinnamon and gold.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
