Good morning, this fortnight's challenge at Sweet Stampin' begins today, the theme is
BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL
there are lots of ways this theme can be interpretated, at first I thought of bright bold colours- always good to see this time of year but I chose to think of brighter days and beautiful spring flowers, so this sweet Mo Manning digi was perfect (also I fancied a bit of colouring and hadn't coloured it before...)
Coloured with Copic markers, added a little background stencilling and matted onto yellow then green card, all finished.
I'm looking forward to what you make of this theme- need some inspiration? - just check out the fabulous makes from the rest of the Design Team!
Thanks for visiting
Chris

What a sweet image Chris, you've coloured her beautifully, a lovely nod to Spring.

Such a joyful celebration of early spring. The soft stenciled background adds just enough movement to frame the image, and the yellow and green mats brighten everything without overpowering your coloring. The Mo Manning digi feels perfectly chosen for the theme, and your Copic work gives her such warmth and life. A beautifully balanced take on Bright and Beautiful.
