YR, RV and BG Colour Challenge

Hi Copic Lovers,

I have a new post for our new challenge! It's a colour challenge.  

This is going to help us all learn our Copic colours I think!  

For this challenge you have to use the colours YR, RV and BG in your creation.

I coloured in this Magnolia horse.  It started off being for a baby card, but it all got a bit too bright so I have changed it to a 3-year-old b'day card I need instead.  I will have another go at the baby card later!

I used these colours:

YR23, YR61, YR68

BG10, BG15, BG05

RV02, RV04, RV13, RV23

A big congratulations to our winners from the Male and Brown Challenge! Thanks to everyone for taking part.  I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with for this challenge!

Happy Colouring : )
