Love these Basic Grey Lemonade Papers and they were perfect for the Basic Grey Color Challenge of Maroon, Lemon and Pink. I colored her in with my copics and then just had to paper piece part of her with these yummy papers (and then I added a bit of shadow to the papers with my copics). I followed the sketch over at The Pink Elephant and will be using this one again! The charm was colored with a R85 copic and I tried a new way of attaching it. When making my bow with the Bow Easy, I slid the charm on before threading it through the back side and it worked, well, like a charm.... I also added some stickles to the flower on her hat to bring in a bit of sparkle.
