Finally...
I inked up one of the stamp sets we received at Convention today. :) Yay! I figured I should try to use them all before my new stuff gets here.
I jokingly told a friend the other night that combining a sketch challenge and a color challenge created 95% of the card for you. This card made me eat those words a bit. I used the colors from the colourQ challenge and paired them with the weekly sketch challenge on Splitcoast. I took me a bit to figure out where to use each color and what elements to add in, but I finally managed to get something that I liked. What do you think? I am not the best at coloring, so I'm trying to work on it a bit. Just like I don't like things touching, I also don't like my coloring to go outside of the lines. That makes watercoloring difficult, but I'm trying...
