I really admire the beautiful images at A Day for Daisies. The talented folks that make paper crafts with these images are amazing as well! Other than a simple bunnies design, I have been pretty afraid to try to color any of these images – because the bar is set so high! So, this is my first try at coloring a more detailed image. It is called “Little Winter” and it was a freebie on their blog awhile back. I like how her wings almost look like winter scarves as well. I do not see it in their shop, but there are so many other lovely options! I wanted to keep the colors very muted because on a gray-skied day when it starts to snow, things are always monochromatic outside. There is a slight sparkle in her hair with a Wink of Stella pen that is hard to see in the photo. This is my first try at using Copic Opaque White paint as well.
