Jacquie's inspiration post week 1 with Be My Sunshine

I hope you are having a great week. I just love May. I live in southern Indiana, and May is the beginning of warmer weather, and with warmer weather comes the beautiful flowers. 

For my first card I selected Be My Sunshine, isn't she just beautiful. I love the detail that the artist Ching-Chou Kuik puts into all of the artwork.

For this card I used copcs to color the image. I used a combination of yellow greens for the dress and violets for her hair. You can use any of your alcohol markers to color these beautiful stamps.
