Great Layout, and a little colour tip

I saw the layout for this card on Jacky's blog and asked her if she didnt mind me using it, she said I was welcome to, so made this sweet card with this gorgeous hanglar image....


now I used Forest green and ruby promarkers to colour her coat and trousers but didnt have any darker colours to shade her with so I tried Cool grey 4 just on the darker areas and went over again with the forest green or ruby to blend and was really pleased with the results.....



Thanks for stopping by...
