SO cute, right?? I love this image so much! So much, in fact, that I think this little girl holds the record for the longest time spent colouring an image. PHEW! I think I took about an hour. First I coloured her with Copics, then I did all of the shading with a charcoal pencil.. A labour of love, that’s what we’ll call it!

You can see a little better in the close-up all the places I’ve added grey shading with the charcoal (underneath her bangs, where the clothes overlap, below her head) and it really helps to make certain areas POP!

Do you love the glitter cardstock (Best Creations.. Kind of expensive..) I’ve matted everything with? I’ve paired these papers with silver before and it was a great match so I did it again.. Such fun!
 

Smarty Pants is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 23 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

Would you like to win the new Smarty Pants stamp set? Here is what you need to do-visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go.
