While I can't share the actual challenge details, I can share how I made this card. Sue aka Irishgreensue enabled me to buy some more digi stamps - thankfully they were on sale as I got a bit carried away (thanks Greeny).
I have run out of Copic cardstock and my normal cardstock is too heavy to go through my printer, you would think this is a bad thing, but I am loving colouring on photocopy paper!!
I have coloured quite a few images now on copy paper. I use prismacolour pencils first then touch up some area with Spectrum Noir markers. The waxy pencils combined with the alcohol makes for a terrific glossy finish. The paper is super easy to fussy cut.
I cut some strips of dp and added a few sequins here and there. Thanks so much for looking and I hope you are joining in the DTGD fun.

Just looking at those killer heels gives me shivers in my bunions. We're we all mad to wear them, or what?
I would never have guessed your images were on copy paper! And thanks for the tips! Great coloring.

Oh Susie, fab! I love all the long thin banners like trailing vines. I'm not sure that I could ever wear killer heels and run for the bus, I go barefoot too often for heels ever to be comfortable. You should have seen me the last time I visited my dad and had to run for 3 different buses... which I wasn't expecting and I can tell you now that flip-flops are not designed for running!! Next time I'll make sure to wear sandals ;-). Definitely not these shoes, much as I love red shoes.

OMGosh Susie, these are some great shoes....I can just see you trying to walk around in them my friend...keyword, trying, LOL!! I can envision an accident happening that you later tell us all about!!
These are so super terrific! I love the fact that you are using copy paper???!!!! Wow, what an idea. They probably DO work great with pencils. I remember (before Copics) that I would use Prisma Pencils to color and then use regular Tombow pens on top...it actually works great and did make everything look smooth. Hmmm, well, fantastic card mate! I love it!

I can't believe your beautifully colored and shaded high heels were done on copy paper. Love the way you finished your card too. Really fun, colorful and creative. TFS my friend. Hugs, nancy

I was going to be mad because I didn't get a notification on this gorgeous piece of work when you posted it, until I noticed it was for DTGD. I'm glad I happened across it, because those killer shoes are definitely killer! The bling and banners are so festive and fun Awesome card!
I've used pencil on top of Spectrum Noirs - but nor the other way around. Have to keep that in mind!

Wow! Those shoes could make one come alive....or maybe kill them. I don't know which. I know which if I had them on. :( Love them just the same. You're doing a great job with that photocopy paper. Your cards couldn't look any better.

Oh, Susie, these are amazing! I LOVE them but would NEVER again wear anything like them - in fact, I would probably break an ankle! Hehe! Amazing coloring and beautiful layout with the streaming pennants! And how cool to use regular copy paper. I always practice on it with my Copic markers, and sometimes I think I should just use that one! Maybe someone I shall! Hugs! xoxo
