PPA 40 Monochromatic... Blues

 

Today’s card is for PPA Challenge, Monochromatic using Blues.  I chose to use Bashful Blue, only to realize I barely had enough DSP to do the Challenge.  But here’s my card.

I colored in my image using the Copy Cat Copics Technique from Butternut Sage.  Using Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Old Olive Re-inkers.  The body of the dragonfly is a mix of the greens and blues, which is a much richer, turquoise color on the card. 

I can’t wait to browse all the uploads today on the PPA.  Everyone is going to be using blue, I’m anxious to see all the different takes on the same color.
