I like the colors I chose for this lovely lady.  I truly like coloring and Morgan's images give me a chance to do just that.  I wasn't sure if the deep red-violet I used on the sleeves was going to work, but it did.  I used the same color, only went over the patterns in the peacock pattern on the back to darken it.  I was amazed at how different the colors turned out on the image.

Morgan's Fantasy Fae 24

When I began, I wasn't sure of what colors I was going to use, but as I colored her hair, I thought green would be the perfect color to use next.  I colored this image differently from my fellow DTs as I thought this lady was wearing a shirt as I thought the length of the torso would be out of proportion with a real person.  I think it will work either way.

I'll be using Vintage Cameo 2 Greyscale for December.  With a Greyscale, you can actually get quicker results than with a regular digital of this image.  I was amazed at how quickly I colored her.  I always color the skin tones first, especially the face.  A face can go bac very quickly and if it does, it's almost impossible to save (I have saved a couple, but still).  

I you see I used a Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die, I'm referring to the outside white edging surrounding the outside.  If you cut an 8 1/2 in X 11 in card stock just as you might for cutting 4 pieces to cover over an A2 card, then use the Postage Collage Die to cut out the collage, you have a wonderful edging to use on other cards, such as this one.

I selected Cameo 8 for my image to color.  I don't think I've ever colored her before and if I have it's been YEARS.  So many beautiful women in the gallery to choose from. I do think that I would choose a different blue for the image background.  I hope you like her as much as I do.

A bit of fantasy today.  I chose to work with Firefly Greyscale.  I used milled lavender distress ink to shade the background first and then some pale blues for the clothes, Copic colors B0000, B000 & B00.  I didn't think it needed anything else this time around.  I just couldn't get these colors out of my mind.

My granddaughter still has a mug here at my house displaying a tiger, very close to the image I've colored below.   I know the sentiment may confuse some, but the image is close to my granddaughter's heart, therefore I feel this sentiment is perfect for this card I'm giving her, just because.
