Embrace the Ocean

I have been playing with my new Spectrum Noir pencils and used a new image by Ching-Chou Kuik, called "Embrace the Ocean.

I really enjoyed coloring this, but found I had to use many layers to get the look I wanted, think I just need lots more practice, still cannot get fine lines in the hair, maybe a sharper pencil is needed?




I created the background by spritzing with blue and purple adirondack inks, mixed with a little water.

The papers are scraps I had around, the flowers are wild orchid crafts and the curly die cut is memory box.




Challenges I would like to enter are:-


Sister Act Card Challenge - Anything Goes
The Stamping Boutique - Create your own background
Chocolate Coffee Cards - Colour Inspiration
Inspiration Destination - Anything Goes
