Hand me Downs


Time for another challenge at Totally Gorjuss and it's a really easy challenge this week, Happy. We are sponsored by The Ribbon Girl and Saturated Canary and the DT were lucky enough to choose an image to use. I chose hand me downs, isn't she pretty. I am finding working out the colour combos for my new Copics a challenge, but one I am enjoying. They are very different to colour with and it will take me a while to improve so bear with my colouring in the meantime. Pretty pleased with the hair, though not perfect but her skin looks a bit orange. I am using the colours others recommend just need to perfect the technique. 
Image - Saturated canary digi
Medium - Copics
Papers - Floral Fantasties freebie
Dies - MB bird and cage and Magnolia fence
Sentiment - LOTV
Other - ribbon, 2 pearl hearts, DI Milled Lavender and stickles

Gorgeous card Marianne, your colouring is great, wouldn't know that you were a newbie to copics. I still struggle at times with my colour combos, not often thinking to go outside colour families. I like to take inspiration from those more experienced and youtube.
