I created this a few weeks ago, but am only now blogging about it, as I left for vacation the day after I finished the card! I based my card on the now ended Tuesday Morning Sketches #358. Here's a close up of that gorgeous ballerina. After she was colored, I went over the flowers with Crystal Stickles.
I'm not happy with how the hair turned out, but as they say, you are your own worst critic. (wink) I did have a lot of fun coloring this image, and hope to start getting back to coloring more now that I'm back home.
That's all for now. Gotta go and walk my fur baby, or really, just let him out in the back yard. It's too damn hot outside!! Keep cool and thanks for visiting!

ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous graduation card for a dancer, Chris! Love the shades of blue on the Flower Ballerina image, and I really like your use of black to ground the piece and make it look very sleek and grown up. Thank you for joining our Tic Tac Toe challenge at Aurora Wings. Mitzi xx
