Oh With a Whiff Of Joy

Good evening ladies
Another great relaxing class today, but lots of interesting new colouring techniques learnt.

I hope you all manage to sandwich the image onto the card once you have practised on your spare images

Today's techniques learnt 
Colouring Hair
Colouring Pleats
 Colouring Background
 Feather blending
Colouring Ribbon

along with playing with some messy glue and that oh so gorgeous lace 

This is the 8 x 8 inch Card that we made
The image Whiff of Joy,  is available at Grimsby Crafts as are all of the papers and some of the flowers.  The ribbon and lace are also in the store along with the liquid pearls and the Mulled Lavender Tim Holtz distress ink. The MS punch and the Nestie leaves are also in stock.

Here is a close up of each image
She has been coloured with the copics and here is the ribbon that we coloured to match, it was originally white.
The flowers are arranged in an arc around the bottom left of the image and here is a close up for you.

Violets - V06, V05, V04, V01 for the dress.
Earth Tones (facial) - E11 for the face darker shading, E00 for the face middle shading and E000 for the rest of the face.
Blue/Green - BG10 this was used for edging the image using tiny dots lots of them around the image.
