There's something so satisfying about pencil colouring, don't get me wrong I love colouring with alcohol markers which blend beautifully, but there's something special about seeing all your own pencil strokes. I think it reminds me of being a wee girl with my dreams if being an "artist" when I grew up lol.
I decided to colour a Simply Betty digi called Abby Portrait I have had for a while but not used yet, here's my card
My backing paper is Prima, my sentiment is papermania, my ribbon is from my stash and I finished off with some dots of pearly Cosmic Shimmer.
I don't go for half hearted for my first attempt I don't think I could have chosen brighter colours if Id tried. I really enjoyed colouring her so hopefully I will improve with practice.
I can't wait to get inspired by all your pencil drawn and coloured projects so please take a look at the challenge blog here for all the details.

What total inspiration - I have this stamp!!! I have never used it before... I may have to case this card. I'll give you all the credit. Gorgeous coloring. I like seeing touches of red/orange in flowing hair.
Gorgeous Lynne I love the colours you used I would never even attempt to use such bold colours but you made them work beautifully :)
Your card is gorgeous, Lynne!! I can't believe that is your first time coloring with pencils!! Love that hair!!!
