It's a BOY!

Hi everyone,  

Ok so why is this post titled It's a BOY! when its not a new baby card? Well, when Krista released this image over at Saturated Canary as part of the New Year 2015 bundle this was the first image I printed and couldnt wait to get 'her' printed up. I had bought my daughter some Dr Dre's Beats for Christmas so saw this image and I thought its perfect for her. Coloured it in - all pinks and lemons and girly. Showed it to my daughter who said 'Erm mum isn't that meant to be a boy?!'  I have no idea what made me think it was a girl. As soon as she said it I thought DOH of course it is lol! So here is my new BOY version of this amazing digi. Maybe soon I will be brave enough to show you my tomboy version too! 


All shapes cut on the Silhouette Cameo


I used Copics to colour the image:
SKIN: E33, E11, E21, E00
HAIR: T9, T7, T5, T3
JEANS:  B97, B95, B93
SHIRT: YR21, Y21, Y20
TIE: R24, R22



I am going to use this as my 3rd and final entry into the Saturated Canary guest DT call.
