Flat Colouring at Make it Crafty

Hello, I'm here with my latest play around trying flat colour shading on Crystal's dress for my colouring inspiration post over at Make it Crafty.  So basically the dress is coloured with one colour Y17, then shaded with W3. I also used BG13 for diamonds on dress, and once again used W3 for shading. It was a quick easy way to shade... and a technique I would not normally try. Here's the whole card.

Happy crafting
