Crimson Holly

Hello again
Back again with another Ching Chou Kuik card to show you.
This time I have used Crimson Holly for my card.
I just adore this image.

I decided to go back to my Polychromo pencils for this one.
I don't know why but I always love to colour this image in pencil!

Now the eagle eyed amongst you may spot some white dots throughout her hair.
I added lots of white dots, normally quite effective, but I think as I had printed this one out a bit smaller than normal it just overpowered the colouring.  So I went over the image with a craft knife and scraped them all off.  It has left a ghost like remnant of the white ink but I actually quite like it.

The greeting is from a Claritystamp letterbox set and the flowers are all from my stash.

Now I normally do the butterfly on this image in orange and yellow but for some reason I went with purple on this one.  It gives a completely different perspective to the image I think?  What do you think?  Shoud I go back to orange and yellow for the next time I use it?

Right, best get a wriggle on.  
See you soon.
Hugs
