Digital Delights Sketch Challenge #19


I had so much fun with this image! To start off he was a blast to color! I love using shades of blue and the colorless blender. I didn't have any designer paper that I thought would work with him, so I went browsing and found this perfect digital paper. That's pretty handy and economical if you're ever in a bind for just the right sort of paper! This little cutie is part of the new release at Digital Delights. I used the sketch for challenge #19. Be sure to stop by the DDBLL Blog and see all the great images and project samples by the team! I hope you can join us this week!
