Anya Doubletake

I actually managed to combine 2 different TGF challenges into one card - a sketch challenge from their TGF blog and a color challenge from their Club Anya blog.

Here are the sketch and the color inspiration:


I combined them to make this card:


I had A LOT of fun making this card. I just love this Autumn Anya and she was just the right proportion for the card. Using coordinating papers from Fancy Pants Design made the card easy to put together. I used my Copics to color her in (of course!) and embellished the card with 2 Prima flowers, a Basic Grey button, some green Scrappers' Floss, 3 antique brass brads and a corner accent made with my SU! corner punch. I've been in sort of an inking mood lately, so I inked all the layers with Palette Burnt Umber ink, my favorite brown ink.

After making 2 black and red cards recently, it was nice to use a more colorful palette this time, even if the colors are muted ones. Of course, my FAVE color (pink) will be back on my blog for the Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge. Here's a sneak peak of my card, made with the adorable Poppy from DigiStamp Boutique:


See, isn't she adorable? Be sure to come back on Wednesday to see the rest of the card along with Arlana's newest sketch!
