Your challenge this time is all about

**A Touch of Red**

color ANY image ANY way you like
but it must have some RED in the image somewhere!!
Our Wonderful sponsor is Tiddly Inks!  

I used this adorable digital image called Aisha  from Tiddly Inks.       I am currently taking Suzanne Dean's class on "Hair" and used her color combo and technique for coloring this image.    Doesn't she look like she is "styling"? LOL  I realize the hair looks rather "ginger" colored but this particular color combo is listed as "red " hair.   

Copic Alcohol Ink Markers
Hair: E07, E15, E02
Dress YG63, touch of G18, G40 and Colorless Blender for texture. 
Blouse:  B03, B02, B00
Background: B000, B00, C0, G000, Copic opaque white ink

That's all for today.   Have a great week!   I still have two more days off before returning to work so I know I will have a great time! :D    (BIG smile)

  8. This is such a happy card! Love the greens & brownish reds used in the colors. You've really got the shading & folds in her skirts wonderfully well, and the rich highlights in her hair. Love the contrast. That's something I have to work hard to achieve, and never totally get it. Thanks for the heads up on the CMC. Think I have something that might work. Suzanne is fabulous isn't she? TFS
