There are a variety of playful silhouette images in my new release as well - traditionally we think of silhouettes as being black, but I loved playing with them in color here for this little scene. I used Aquacolor markers to ink my stamps up, with a quick spritz of water before printing.

I gave the girls a loose puddle to play in, then pulled some of the green ink into the paint for a reflection. I splattered blue and pearl paint over the scene, loosely masking the girls with a Post-it note.

Using lighter colors also allows some shading to be added to the image - even just a slight color change can add so much depth.Be sure to check out these other designers' blogs for inspiration, and comment for more chances to win!
