Peggy (pegmac71) brought to us today beautiful colors for the Color Challenge, CC588-A Perfect Smoky Pirouette. The colors she selected are SU Pink Pirouette, Perfect Plum, and Smoky Slate. Great colors, Peggy!
For my card, I used several copic sketch markers that are close to the selected colors to color the floral image on the card. I blended both the pink and plum copic colors on the flowers' petals and a gray on the leaves. I had not blended the pink and plum copic colors before, and I must say I like the outcome.
Enjoy and thanks for your comments!

Wonderful card! I'm so happy you had the courage to try a new blend with your Copics. Adding plum/lavender can really add some beautiful depth to image. A lovely card using the challenge colors.

I do love this beautifully simple image which just calls out to be coloured - which you did beautifully. Love the way you have finished it off with the little pink corner die.
