I used a strip of CS covered with a strong double stick tape to lay out my ribbon pieces. Once adhered to the front, I turned it over, added tape to the back and pulled the ends around firmly to attach them.
Using this as my color palette, I chose to color the calf image from A Day for Daisies with Copics. I'm not happy with my little Black Angus... I colored her so dark, her head is not well defined against her body. Next time I will color her with more highlights.

Oh Ginny, this little calf is so cute! I love your color palette and I think you did an awesome job of coloring her black, I always struggle with this color. It difficult to keep the highlights and shadows but not keep it too light and then it looks grey.... I avoid black to be honest. lol Thanks for playing at Ppinkydolls hun. ~Lizzy
