Hello Friends! I hope everyone is still enjoying their summer or whatever season you are in at this time. I will be happy when fall arrives; not that I am wishing Summer away. I just don't do well in the hot weather and I love being outside.
I created a card with this gorgeous new Conie Fong "Christmas Leilani" and had so much fun coloring her. I love coloring long hair and I know I should try to get better at coloring something besides blondes; but I love blonde hair. I find it easier for me to color than the other colors and it looks better to me than my other colors I have tried. LOL! I had one black hair turn out good; but not since then.
I kept this card Clean and simple. I didn't want to cover the pretty paper and distract from the image. I thought it was perfect the way it was. Of course, it looks much better in person. I had a lot of trouble with the lavender colors showing blue in some of the photo; but not much I can do about that. She really does have lavender lipstick, no blue. LOL!

Inside Card
The blue is really CTMH Wisteria; which is Lavender
but the silly cameras won't capture that color.

Like you, I love being outside, but battle with heat, so I thrive in Winter! Ours is coming to a close, so I'll be hibernating in my craft room where it's air conditioned for the next few months. Your card is stunning! You've done a superb job with the blonde hair! I love that you've left your card fairly unembellished, because I agree, it's perfect just the way it is! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Morgan's Artworld Open Challenge
