I'm very excited about this color combo...bright pink, black and gray! When I first started doing challenges I would stay away from colors that were outside my comfort zone. I love earth tones. Thanks to the inspiration from the DT and for constant encouragement from my cyber friend in Texas...I'm not shying away from bold colors. If it was easy it wouldn't be called a 'challenge' :-)
The patterned papers are from two different K and Co. pads; the stamp and die cut are both from MFT; ribbon, pearls and flower are from Michael's and shapes are Nesties. Flower Soft was added to give the image some dimension. Copics were used to color the image, the Flower Soft, the pearls and the flower. Is there anything you can't do with Copic markers?
