How exactly do you watercolor red hair? I made this card for my cousin, who is a redhead, but I'm not sure she'll be thrilled with my interpretation of her gorgeous hair! I started by watercoloring some Really Rust with my blender pen, then went over it in highlights with Ruby Red. Not sure how I feel about it!
Anyway...I got this image from my friend LotRFan - thanks Tammi! I colored her clothes based on the paper colors and used a blue shimmery gel pen for her pants and headband. The scallops along the bottom were made with my corner rounder punch and the flowers up top were made with the SU 3 flower punch that I finally took out of its tin. I dotted the centers of the flowers with white liquid pearls. The edge of the patterned paper, the white paper, and all of the circles and flowers on the patterned paper were traced with a clear glitter pen.

What a fantastic kick stand card!!!! Love the scallops at the bottom. It is hard coloring red heads. You don't want them to appear orange or bright red.
