So here's the sketch....
And here's my card...
You remember a few weeks ago for Tuesday Morning Sketches I used a Bugaboo image that were best friends (boys), here's the girl version and as I had created that card for a special friendship, this one is no different. Hollyanne made a lot of friends at her dance school, they became her family. One of those special friendships is with a sweet young lady named Lyric.
I should have consulted this picture first when I chose my Copics for skin color. Knowing that Lyric is an inter-racial child I had it in my mind that her skin color is a bit darker than Hollyanne's. Well, I'm wrong, so in my card that is Lyric with a tan!
Supplies:
Card Stock: Neenah Classic Crest, Pretty in Pink
Paper: Making Memories Just Chillin' Collection
Copics: B95, B97, BG01, BG05, BV02, BV04, C8, E00, E02, E33, E37, E53, E57, RV000,
RV02, RV10, YG63
Tools: CM Oval cutter
Embellishments: Mulberry Flowers, Rhinestones (Basics by Kaisercrafts)
