The image I used for this week's challenge at Inspiration Destination is quite out of the ordinary for me. One of our new sponsor's is Kenny K. I decided to go for one of his more risque images, Carmen Electrafying, just to do something totally different. I think I completely shocked my husband when he saw it. I asked him what he thought and he didn't really answer. I assumed he didn't like it. Actually, he asked me if I could make him a life-size one. I don't think so! It was fun to make this card, though. This is the first time I tried blue highlights for the hair. I ended up covering a bit too much of it up when I went back to touch up the black. Oh well, next time.
The digital papers are from Po and Po Digital on Etsy. I colored the image with Copics. The race flags were cut with the Silhouette. I am using the Silhouette more and more to decorate cards.
Copics: B21, B24, B27, C00, C0, C1, C2, C3, C5, C7,
E00, E01, E11, E13, R21, R22, R24, R27, R39, Y38, 100
