What Color Was Your My Little Pony?

Friday, April 16, 2010

Hello peeps!

Are you ready for another Farm Fresh Friday challenge from The Greeting Farm?? Excellent! Because this week's challenge is a SKETCH! It's brought to us by our fabulous farmer, Mary Giles! Head over to the TGF blog to check it out, but before you do, here's what I did with it!

You might have caught a sneak peek of this cutie pie on Heather's blog the other day, but if you didn't, please meet Pinto Pony!! Doesn't she remind you of those My Little Pony horses?

To answer the post question, I only had a few ponies growing up, but my favorite was a purple one. Truth be told, I still play with Syd's every now and then! :D I was so excited to show her these new digi stamps, and in particular Pinto Pony, but I didn't quite get the reaction I thought I'd get. She was more interested in getting me to stamp out Eric Wild Sprout instead! I have a boy crazy 4 year old on my hands! God help me when she hits her teens! LOL (That's a nervous laugh peeps!)

My LSS doesn't have any of the latest My Mind's Eye paper so I found this yummy Quite Contrary Mary Mary 6x6 sampler pack from DieCutsRUs. (And I see Claudia's added more sampler packs from MME....I guess I have to make another purchase soon! LOL) The colors are so girly and perfect for Pinto Pony don't you think?? As always, I colored up the image with my reinkers and aquapainter brush. I used a combination of Regal Rose, Ruby Red and Razz Raspberry for the shadows. I used Antique Linen for her body and a combination of Tea Dye and Vintage Photo for the shaded areas on her body. As I do with all my Marina Neira images, I added some Glossy Accents to her eyes to make them shine.
