Swiss Pixie Gretel for FBW #105

This week's Flutter By Challenge is an open one, just be sure to have a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation!
I really didn't know what image I wanted to use until I remembered this weekend I had spent time coloring at a friend's house and tried out my hand at African American skin tones, (too bad I didn't write down what colors I used as I can't remember now!). Another friend wanted this image turned into a card for her best friend so here's what I came up with. I kept it fairly simple so my friend could mail it easily.

Danni - love it. I have tried making an ethnic coloring before and you are right you really need to keep track of the colors to try and get it again. Yours came out wonderfully.
