For my card, I used a Copic colored piece I had used for practice. I'd had it sitting around for a few weeks not sure how to use it when along came this sketch which is perfect!
This young lady is a digi from Saturated Canary and I colored her up in warm and cool grays, along with a touch of pink. I layered the image onto some Fog cardstock then onto a Basic Gray card base. The die cut sentiment was cut once from Pink Pirouette and once from Basic Gray and layered slightly off-center. I made a rolled rose and added a couple of little die cut leaves and the card was done.
Sorry, Linda, but I didn't put the ribbon/twine element on the card - I thought it would look a bit weird cutting through the middle of her head, so I left it out.
Thanks for visiting. I hope you have time to check out the rest of the design team cards - they are gorgeous and varied as always.

You are an "artiste" my friend! Love the added pink with your colors - softens everything perfectly! She is beautifully colored and rocks those boots thanks to your skills! And yep the twine would have been weird....

I certainly wouldn't call this a practice piece because it is knock-my-socks off gorgeous! Not only is this image beautiful but your sweet little flower and the way you layered the sentiment just adds the perfect finishing touches to this!
