"Flutterby" . . .

Welcome, once again, to my little bloggity blog!! It's Thursday . . . which, of course means that it's time for another fun challenge at Mo's DP2 Challenge Blog! As you may know, since this is the first challenge of the month, our theme (as always) is . . .

Anything Goes!

Here's what I came up with . . .

This little image is called "Flutterby" and is one of Mo Manning's older digi images I decided that it was high time that I figure out how to color brown skin. So I remembered that I'd gotten this sweet little guy many, many months ago . . . and decided he would be perfect for this week's card! You can find this cutie HERE in Mo's online store.

 It took me several hours of trying various Copic color combos . . . but I think it was well worth the effort, 'cuz I'm rather pleased with the results!

Here are the  Copics I used for his skin & hair. . . 

Skin: E25, 23, 13, & 11

Cheeks: R32

Hair (which I just dotted): E49, 47, 25, & 23

The rest of my card "recipe" . . .
