I used parisian Breeze, with Baja for my girl, and some crumb & neutrals.
This is for a girl at church turning 18, I thought it would suit, she's a young 18...and had black hair and darker skin, but I tried not to get the hair too black on the card...could look messy..
thanks for the challenge...

You couldnt have picked a more appropriate image for a girl turning 18. The image is really colored beauitfully with her dark hair and darker skin tone. Trust me, the birthday girl will really love this one.

Jan, this image is fabulous, and I love the way you did her hair- it looks 3D, like the curls are just coming out! Very sweet card, I know your friend will love it! Your heart is all over this one Sister! Hugs.....
