Things have just been in chaos lately and I really don't do well when my regular routine is thrown off. It was a bright spot of sunshine to be able to sit down and color up this little Woodsie from Stamping Bella. I got almost all of the new Woodsie collection when it was released at the beginning of the month. I just fell head over heels for the little characters in this series. This particular one is called "Especially for you, Petunia". I have to admit that Petunia is a fave character from the collection.
Last week's challenge was this sketch:
I did a little coloring experimentation with this one and used just a touch of W1 and BV31 for shadows on Petunia. I need to work a bit on blending it out. This photo is closer to the pink that Petunia is on my card.
Copics Used:
pig E00, E01, E02, W1, BV31, R20, R22, R30
flower R20, R22, R24, YG03, YG93, YG95
chick Y11, Y21, YR23
grass G82, G94, G99
Here's the sweet sentiment that comes with the stamp.
