Hello all! I hope you are well? Just a quickie post from me to share the card I would like to enter in a few challenges, before it is too late:-)!!! It is the first time I have tried to colour darker skin (and frizzy hair), and I have come to 2 conclusions: firstly, I need to practise (for both), secondly I think I have to buy more Copics! I am not satisfied, but here is my card anyway...
Bonsoir! Rapidement une petite carte pour participer à plusieurs challenges:-) C'est la première fois que j'essaie de colorier la peau dans des tons plus foncés (et des cheveux crêpus) et je suis parvenue à 2 conclusions: premièrement il faut vraiment que je m'entraîne (pour les 2) et deuxièmement il faut que j'achète des Copics en plus, il me manque des couleurs:-)! Je ne suis pas satisfaite, mais voici quand même le résultat de mes essais...
I first coloured a Mini Tilda to try the darker skin tones, then I decided I would try on a large face, more difficult obviously but it seemed the right thing to do to play in the challenge, that's why I chose that stamp.
The image only and recipe...

Oh. My. Word! No babes, you do NOT need to practice more - this is just so incredibly amaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing! What you need to be doing is giving lessons to little furry critters (wink). Such gorgeous work hun, love it. Hugs Sxx
