Final colours for Kay's Cartoon

I thought I would create a separate page which clearly shows which colours I think best for the composition and to give Kay a place to choose which she likes best. I could spend a while fiddling with colours of different shades and tones but I feel Ive hit the nerve with a few of these trials and don't want to divert any further or I will end up ruining it!:P

In no particular order:

My top 3:

I feel these choices best suit the colour and composition for their pastel tones and their winter/ frosty feeling. It frames the characters, brings out the hot tones and gives a bit of a classic feeling.

The Reds, in order of preference:

#1

This is the darkest version and feel it swallows the characters and I cant see the writing being decipherable under this rich and heavy colour either. It is however very Christmassy and Kay's Mam's fave colour.

#2

Slightly lighter version of the above, more grey and whiter tones but I'm really not a fan.

#3

Not a fan. 

Once Kay chooses the colour she likes I will then add the text 'Merry Kissmas' and can proceed to printing on either a high gloss or water-colour paper.
