we asked the team to colour
Dark Skintones

It's not as hard as you think!
We know this one is a little scary so as usual, you can enter an Anything Goes make in the challenge but there will be extra brownie points if you join in and brownie points for anyone who

I have enjoyed this challenge, because it isn't very often I use dark skin tones, so it was nice to try out different skin colour combos.The image I have used it from the Polkadoodles Fredericka Cd rom.
