Hello friends. How are you doing? Are you ready for Spring/Summer? We are getting more rain again in Southern CA. It is supposed to rain 3 days this week. I feel like I am back in FL with all the rain. LOL!
I am here today to share another card I created using Ching-Chou Kuik "Spring Delight". I love this sweet image; but have always been too intimidated to color it. I am getting braver with my coloring this year; and starting to color the ones I wouldn't have colored a year ago. All you have to do when coloring something that feels overwhelming; is just start coloring. Do the things you are most comfortable first like skin and hair; then do one item at a time. Eventually you will get everything colored. It's one step at a time. Before you know it; it is all colored. LOL!
