Add bottom bits that will be covered with layers and layers of paper for depth (creepy puppy face!!)

Add details- eyebrows, skin folds to shape the eyes. P.S. that is my most favorite pencil, had it since 2nd grade!!

Completed and ready for allergy-free loving

I always add my details in colored pencil/watercolor pencils after the card is assembled. I opted to use brown with orange and yellow highlights to give the eyes life.

Look at those eyes...

I must admit that I have never been very good at figuring where to add the shine on eyeballs…so usually I just guess and hope for the best.  * I know my pictures suck. Perhaps I should buy a fancy camera…or maybe I’ll save that cash for these instead. Ya, those…
