I made this card using Love Couple by InStyle Stamps to participate in the October Color Challenge. The challenge is to create a card or project using the provided photo as the color inspiration, which included golds, reds, silvers and blues. I’ve used this embossing folder before for a similar card but it’s perfect for a quick simple card!

Talk about colouring in manga perfectly!! Boy do I love that image! If I can't resist and buy some stuff from InStyle, I'll blame you, I swear!! When I sa how you coloured their faces my jaw pure dropped!!Oh, the baby skin colours I used – well, I can't swear by it but looking at the image I usually get that pale baba skin with E13, E21, E00, E000, E0000 plus W3, W1 and W0 for additional shadowing. I am STILL looking for the scrap of paper I wrote the sky colours down on. I guess you can see WHY I'm The Messy Crafter, lolHugsAnnika
