A while back I took part in a challenge where only your image could be coloured & all embellies had to be white. Thought I'd make another card in the same style...digi is Sophie from Digi Stamp Boutique, simply coloured with a Poppy Red ProMarker with glazed highlights. All embellishments have been run through the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug Folder.
