I prepared everything first making the diecuts and cutting the papers to size, this took about 15 minutes. Here is the first card I made using the coloured image:
I used the cute Angel Donita which is available here at Digital Delights. The sentiment is from the A Touch of Christmas Sentiments Set which is available here at Digital Delights. I have used Wendy's digital paper from the Candy Cane Lane Paper Pack available from Digital Delights here. All the dies are Spellbinders, the ribbon is from The Ribbon Girls and charm and twine are from my stash. This card took 14 minutes to make.
Here is the next card I made using the same image but colouring her myself:
I coloured Angel Donita with my Copics, she is available to purchase here from Digital Delights. I have used the same sentiment set as my other card. The papers I have used are from Wendy's Snowflakes Digital Pack which is available here to purchase. This card took 1 hour and 16 minutes to make.
Well that's it from me for today, thank you so much for looking and a big welcome to my new follower. See you soon, take care xx

These are both gorgeous Susan and don't they look soo different - you have to look twice to check that they are the same image. I love the way you have coloured the blue girl. The lacy edge to her dress looks really brilliant.

Hi there Susan such lovely cards both of them and cant believe you did the prep for first one in 15 mins I faff around for ages choosing and rejecting before deciding but love them both think second is my fav. though.
Oh and thank for popping over to my place and saying hi too, Shaz in Oz.x
Hi Susan, both cards are lovely but I do prefer your colouring, a lot more depth to the image

Hey Susan
Such beautiful cards - its amazing how a change of colour completely transforms them.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving me some comments. With regards to the shading around the image - I will be posting a tutorial on Thursday (my first one - gulp) on how I do it so hopefully this will show you how.
I don't sponge around the image I use an Ink Duster.
Have a great week.

They are both gorgeous, both in beautiful colourways. Its terrible how long it takes us when we are colouring ourselves but then thats were all the fun lies:)
These are gorgeous. I love both versions of the image but I do think the one you coloured is the best! Loved reading your blog on the difference in time. I do think coloured images are faster, but I could never make one in 14 minutes:O) You are a master at your craft!
hugs

Both cards are gorgeous but the one you coloured yourself is my favourite. I love your colouring - you are such an expert at it! I hope your daughters health is improving. Take care xx
Hi Susan, don't know whats happening but I missed this post ! How could I ... lol.. I love the comparison of the two cards, and just shows how different 1 image can be. I prefer yours, it's those lovely subtle colours you have used, something which I just cannot do! Beautiful cards xxx
Both just gorgeous, but the one you have coloured is my favourite!
Hugs Shell xx
