Dare U 2 Digi Stamp

My daughter asked me to make a birthday card for her friend. She's particularly fond of this shoe by Chris Dark, but I found colouring it in Navy more problematic than black. I don't have as many shades of deep blue in my Copics, so it was quite tricky. I used both shades of blue to colour the ribbon, one was too bright, the other too deep, but together they worked quite well.
The papers are all Pink Petticoat... I had to go ferreting around my external hard drive to find the Flourish paper, but obviously found it eventually.
The overall effect of this card is a little fussy for my liking, but I hope my daughter will like it... it's what she asked for...the shoe, navy and a ribbon, plus her friend's name!
It's for the sketch challenge at Dare U 2 Digi Stamp.

  9. you know what they say Chrissie - if the shoe fits, buy it in every colour - well with digi shoes, you can have it in as many colours as you have copics or promarkers...can't wait to use mine.
