Hello, it's my second post today. This is a new card I made for the Birthday Celebrations at Catch the Bug.
This one is for the color challenge. I have to confess that definitely these are not my colors, but it was fun to try and do something very different:

I colored the image with school markers (I don´t have alcohol or professional ones) and the skin tone with Koh.i.noor aquarelable pencils. I placed it on a black cardstock mat and made some faux stitches aroud the image.

I used two different dp and used black cardstock to mat everything. The sentiment is by Create with TLC and is also mat with black cardstock.

The only embellishmet are three metallic something (what are they? how do you call them?).
