I combined two challenges, the CC214 color combo and the SC224, sketch challenge.
I chose to stamp my blue haired ladies with Whisper black and color in with colored pencils. I adorned them with a pink liquid pearl necklace and a pink liquid pearl flower complete with gemstone. Don't you just love their matching gemstone purses and hats? LOL! I added Glossy Accent to the one lady's glasses for a shine. I added corner punches which were a RAK from Patsmether (Thanks, Sistah....I love these!!!!).
The sentiment on the inside reads: We'll be friends until we are blue in the hair!
I think that these ladies have made it......don't you? LOL!!!! I think we all have at least one friend that we can say this to!!!
What do you think?
