Bloggers Challenge- Color Challenge

I am late again for the Bloggers Challenge- but I wanted to make a card. Our Colors this week are Red, Yellow and Green……….  I used fall shades of the colors and had started a card, but then ran across a digital image tonight that I thought was just perfect for my colors.  (The designer, Kayla,  is young and is just starting to sell digi’s- and I bought 2 images for $2.88 which I like even better)!


  I used Copic markers to color the image R24, R27, Y08, YG17 and YG63 plus E35 , E37 and E39. Sentiment  and cardstock are by SU.  (Retired Summer Sun, Old Olive (Nestability scallop) and Red Riding Hood).
Here is a close-up of the image and coloring:


This is a pretty CAS card for me- and no technique either…
To see the other Bloggers Challenge cards, HERE is the link.
Challenges for this card:
Stamping for the Weekend- Anything goes
Bee Crafty-Anything goes
Our Daily Bread Challenge-Texture it
Paper Players-Anything goes

Thanks for stopping by- it is going to be 90 again tomorrow in the Chicagoland area and humid…..
What is it like where you are?
