Cool Ian

I spent several hours stamping and coloring this image of Ian from the Greeting Farm. It was the first time using watercolor paper, since I was water coloring. It was not as easy as doing it on my SU whisper white. I wasted a whole sheet trying to get his hair right. I ended up using my Soft Suede marker and aqua painter for hair I still think it could be better but it will do. The sketch for this card comes from Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge 12. I made this card for possibly entering into the Club Anya Design Team, that is where the red, brown and white come from.

Supplies used SU Real Red Cardstock and Brads, SU Soft Suede Cardstock and Marker, stamp is Ian from The Greeting Farm, Large Deckled Rectangle Nesties, Retired SU Hodge Podge and Rub on.
Can you tell I used dimensionals to raise clothes and to raise Ian?
