Wimbledon ready

The progressive challenge image from LeAnne's World 101 is just right for this time of year especially with Wimbledon starting next Monday.

DSC_0395(watermarked).JPG

Materials used:LeAnne's World 101 - Racquet Randi
Scrapbook Gems - Tennis Match Clip Art and Papers
Joanna Sheen - Aged Sport acrylic stamps from Creative Stamping Magazine (still available from CraftStash)
printer paper
X-Press It card
black archival ink pad
5x7" card blank
Copic pens:
skin - E00, E11, E13, E15
hair - YR14, YR18, E08, E18
hat, dress and shoes - G02, G17, G29, G99
C01, C03, C05, C07, C09
grass - G21, G94, G99
sky - B000, B00

I tried a different skin tone blend for this card but only because one of the pens in my usual blend is running dry and needs a refil which I have yet to order! I was a bit worried that she might come out too tanned but once the ink had dried she looked a lot better.

The red hair is also a new one, I usually go from brunette, blonde or black but I thought she looked like a red head so that's what I went for.

The sentiment is made up of words from the Joanna Sheen set and stamped with black archival ink.

Thanks for dropping by. Take care.
