Phindy's Challenge - Red, Blue And White

It's Friday and time for a challenge at Phindy's Challenge blog. This time our theme is to make a card in colours red, blue and white.

I chose to use an image from Phindy's Sweet And Salty line. Love those whimsical retro images!






The colouring was done with mainly Copics. The grounding and depth shadow was done with Prismacolour pencils and odourless mineral spirit.






Papers are from two different pads of OA: Fly A Kite and Thrift Shop. Border punch is from EK Success and flowers from different sources.






The sentiments both inside and outside are from My Favorite Things.






COPICS:
Skin: E21/00/000, R37
Hair: E:49/29/37/35/97
Skirt, scarf: B39/37/28/24/34/41/0000, W3
Vacuum cleaner: B97/93/41, W3, R59/37/05/14/30, RV42
Apron, shoes: R59/37/05/14/30, RV42

Head over to Phindy's Challenge Blog and feast your eyes on the gorgeous work of the rest of the DT and don't forget to create a card for the challenge!

I would also like to enter the following challenges:
