CAS James Bear with Butterflies (LOTV)

Hello!

I already had this card all stamped from a few weeks ago and thought it would be perfect for Without Words Challenge Brown and Blue so coloured it up yesterday!




I used:

LOTV James with Butterflies stamp & scroll sentiment stamp
Coloured with Promarkers



I went for a wispy edge effect with the sky and drew a couple clouds with a white felt pen





Thanks for visiting!

Have a lovely Friday everyone!

Lucy xx

      Aww thank you Debs!
      I've been looking at lots of really talented crafters images and how they colour and the trick seems to be to use a really dark shade for the very darkest bits to make the lighter parts really pop, so from dark to light I used:
      Burnt Sienna
      Caramel
      Sandstone
      Satin

      And for his tummy I used
      Sandstone
      Satin
      Ivory

    Wonderful CAS card Lucy! Your colouring just gets better and better. I could do with a master class from you. I'd also like to know what colours you've used for him so can I be cheeky too. Good Luck in the challenges, you should definitely win. Debra x

    Lucy, this is a really beautiful card. Your colouring is gorgeous - you really have done a wonderful job of that fur (which is something I generally avoid)!...
