Now, my card is a bit of a botch-up. I had image coloured to match the papers, the card all stuck together - and then dropped blue ink pad on top of it. There was no way to save the image and I was running out of time so I either had to miss the challenge or think of something fast.
I coloured the same image quickly in warm greys and stuck on top of the ruined one. I only noticed on photos it wasn't even straight...aaargghh.
The sentiment is computer-generated. Papers are from We Are The Memory Keepers and now I have finally decided that I don't really like them at all. The butterfly charm was bought a long time ago from Ebay and is mainly there to try and cover some of the blue ink stains. Ribbon and flower from my stash.
COPIC COLOURS:
W9, W7, W5, W3, W1, W00, 0

Gosh you are hard on yourself and shouldn't be. While you may not be 100% happy with this card, it looks fabulous and I will just tilt my head so I won't know your image is crooked.
Hugs!

You've created such amazing detail with just the warm greys, wow! And I can't tell it's not straight, it's fabulous!
our accidents often produce something marvelous - as is the case here!!! I love it - think we should do a reverse challenge - have the image in black/white and the background all colors! This pops! really do love this one!
No way is this a botch-up Annika! The monochrome image is beautiful and the colours of the surrounding papers set it off perfectly. Love it!
Hugs, Sylvia xxxx
Well, if this is an accident, a "quick" color...Geez, Annika, this is incredible!!! Oh, and the Mo card, LOVE it---and the teachers welling up, I so get it. I always wore sunglasses on the last day to cover those running eyes!
wow..love the black and white colored image! your shading is so delightful.. love it!

You've done it again!!!!!Another stunner! x
Botch up..........what botch up? A very happy accident I'd say and your colouring is amazing. Love those papers too and they work really well with the grey tones. Gorgeous card! Have a great weekend Annika and thanks for joining us at DU2DS. Chris :)x

This may have stemmed from a disaster Annika, but I love the look of the warm grey colouring on this card. It gives it a lovely 'vintage' style.
Well Annika, this is the most fabulous botch-up of a card I've ever seen. I think the image in grays is beautiful, and the DP and embellies are perfect! :)

Annika, although it started from an accident, I think this is a stunning card with the black and white image as the main feature. Rosie x
Ohhh, you poor thing! As if you haven't had enough troubles lately. But, you certainly managed to create a beautiful card! I LOVE monochrome coloring and you've done a masterful job on this one! It's perfect for the bright sunny colors on the dp! A wonderful save! :) hugz, Mary
Hi Annika, Gorgeous card! I love the contrast of the monochromatic image against the bright papers.
