So, Here's My Problem...

So, here's my problem.  I'm managing to colour images, but I'm really struggling with getting any cards actually finished.  There have been dozens of challenges that I've intended to enter over the past few weeks, but I just can't get anything finished!  And ironically, the more I look at other people's work, the more dejected I feel.  *sigh*

Ah well.  On with my post.

I coloured this image a few days ago, but had to give up on an interesting layout or I'd miss the challenge!  It's for The Greeting Farm Which One Wednesday...Sepia/Brown Color Challenge.


I'm really trying to work on getting highlights in hair at the moment.  I'm not sure I've captured it very well, but I'm trying!


Anyway,  thanks for visiting and tolerating my dribble.

Materials:
Stamp sets - The Greeting Farm Little Dreamer
Cardstock - Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso
Inks - Black Memento, Prismacolor pencils
Accessories - OMS, Blending stumps, Chocolate Brown Button Twine (Sew Sweet)

    I really love your creations and this card is super beautiful! Your coloring is amazing and the rustic twine you added fits great :) Just add a pair of buttons or a sweet sentiment and take it into the challenge, your card is fabulous! :)

    So I have a kindred spirit with this dilemma - I do the EXACT SAME THING. :) However, your end result is FABULOUS. This card is amazing in its simplicity and I LOVE it. Don't feel dejected! I am still glad to know it's not just ME that this same thing happens to!

    I'm sure we all feel a little dejected sometime when we see someone else's fab creation but you have nothing to feel dejected about - your creations are gorgeous and 195 other people think so too, so stop worrying and keep up the wonderful work!!!! I LOVE YOUR CARDS

    Dejected?! Your coloring is fantastic! Do the best you can and don't worry about what others are doing or how well they are doing it. Clearly your doing something right with almost 200 people following you and a doz recognition's. I have yet to get one.
