It's time for another Color Throwdown Challenge! This is my third week as a guest designer, and I'm having such a fun time! Each week, a new color challenge is posted on the Color Throwdown blog. Stampers are encouraged to participate, and the designers who contribute weekly provide wonderful samples to inspire.
This week's color challenge is a bit of a change from the pastel colors we've used in the previous two weeks. I enjoyed this combination, but I used only a HINT of coral. The centers of the daisies in her basket.... I told you ... just a HINT! *grin*
For my project I chose to use my Annika stamp, available at Whipper Snapper Designs. The image is stamped in Memento ink and colored with Touch Twin markers. I also used two Prismacolor pencils: color "Henna" to blush her cheeks, and color "Kelp Green" to add grass around her feet.
Here are the Touch Twin markers I used to color the image. (Click for a larger view.)
Pop over to the Color Throwdown blog and participate in this week's color challenge. I'd be delighted, if you did!
Your little girls are so delightful--I want them all! Beautiful coloring. Love how you striped her coat.
