Happy Easter -- For All Dressed Up Stamps

 Hello, fellow charters, and happy March!  That means it's time for another challenge in the Facebook group of All Dressed Up Stamps. The theme this month is ''For the Girls'.  Now, no one does girl images like Wendy Burns, so this is a great one!  Pick out a favorite from the All Dressed Up Stamps Etsy Shop and join us for the ADU FB Challenge.  You have all month! 

I found a girl that also celebrates Easter, or spring!  Perfect for March, I figured!  Here's Happy Easter:



I colored Happy Easter using only Olo markers.  I was determined to try and get to know the colors that I own better.  I was a challenge.  The skin tones went OK.  Her hair was initially a disaster, but after blending a bunch a shades, I achieved something I was satisfied with.  Her dress chose to be another challenge, and I almost gave up at this point, but again, mixed enough shades until I could live with it. The bunny is very light, but those were the only grays I had.  Oh well, It's my Olo colored project.   The beautiful background plate is from Pinkfresh Studio, as is the nesting dies I cut and backed the image with.  The sentiment is meant to be foiled, but I left it as is, and the dewdrops are from my stash.

I hope you can join us this month for our 'For the Girls' Challenge.  I'd love to see what you create!
