Another beauty by Julia Spiri!  

When I choose an image, they are often in unlined, sepia and lined versions.  As much as I want to color all three versions, I only have a limited time, just like everyone else.  This time, I was able to color all three versions.  
All three cards together so quickly.

This beautiful image is from Julia Spiri Enchanting Rainfall.

This image was printed in sepia and colored with Copics

This image was the unlined version colored in Copics

This was the lined version and colored in Copics

There are so many beautiful women in Julia's shop and this is just one of them.  I think you could dream up any occasion and she could fit the season.  I was first going for monochrome, but it went against the grain to do blue strawberries.  I hope you like her.  Happy Coloring!

 There are so many images to choose from and new ones all the time.  I am working with an image that I thought required a larger surface than usual to color because there were so many things to see that are in this delightful image.  I just added some sequins to the sides as I thought they looked like bubbles floating up. I thought a short sentiment fit perfectly.

I chose Lucrecia to work with and she is a stunner.  I've done three cards, working with the sepia, no-lines and line images.  You really can do so much with all three types.

This first card, using the sepia image, is a Z-fold card and I've shown both the closed card and the open card below it.

My second card is the image with no-lines. I have used pretty much the same colors, but you can see how the colors turn out with the different images of Lucrecia.

For the final card, I'm using the lined image. As you can see immediately, her hair and eyes are much darker.  She is truly a gorgeous image to work with and I couldn't stop with using just one image.

I hope you like her and I'll pop the link in the Supply section below.

I know the exact person I'm going to send this to, my granddaughter for whom I've given several Steam Punk items for Christmas, such as the goggles on this dear gal.  My granddaughter looks just as cute too.  LOL

I sponged the dots on the image panel lightly as I didn't want them overtaking the beauty on the panel.  I sponged more heavily on the main panel and I really like the results.  I didn't realize I had sponged a couple dots on the hat, but that mistake turned out to be a lovely addition.
