1 DT Challenge and 1 for Fun

 Morning peeps, this is going to be a picture heavy post today, sorry I couldn't decide which ones to use because the dome kept catching the light.

I have two cards to share today, the first is my DT card for Make it Colourful.

This weeks theme is called

I used the gorgeous Festive Lantern from the Festive Elements available from Make it Crafty



I really enjoys coloring these images, I had been having a few problems the week before, my coloring was awful....I was having a right game finding a combination for soft pink, I think I scrapped at least 10 attempts. In the end I did some research on the web and came across the Copic Color wheel which I knew |I had somewhere but never really bothered using it. Till now, now I use it all the time.




What I used......
Copic colors from light to dark....
