Hmm....I'm thinking maybe I should have just picked a floral to do the no line coloring. I've done it on ornaments & candy canes & it turned out fine, but this little missy was hard to do. Mainly because she's so little & it's hard to no line her & keep facial details.
Anyway, I no lined her by using desert sand ink, colored her, then masked her & stamped the butterfly w/ lt blue & colored it. I was so impressed by Nancy Williams card Here & the floor she drew that I added a drawn floor. The curtains were dry embossed, cut out & added on top.
Thanks so much for looking. It's finally on my blog w/ the Copic colors.The Write Stuff

Oh Julie, I think you did brilliantly. I looked at the little girl example in one of the tutorials and my jaw dropped, I nearly decided to back out of challenging myself along with the rest of you. The stage EF I will have to look out for. This reminds me of when I was one of the good fairies in Sleeping Beauty at the tender age of no more than 5 or 6, I still remember the gauzy wings my dad made me. Thanks for the memories and a beautiful card in the TLC gallery.

You did a fantastic job of coloring your little ballerina, Julie. I can imagine how hard it was to do in the "no-line" technique. Love the embossed stage curtains around her.

This is amazing, Julie! I never would've known those wings weren't part of the original image, and your coloring is perfection. I'm also so impressed with the floor you drew. Very neat trick!
