Well this was fun, pretty sis you got there, hope I did her justice. Gave her a little more of a Tan due to looking like she was ready for the beach and tried to bring out some more of the colors in her hair.

Nice photo, she's very cute!
I played around with the photo a bit. I didn't feel like changing the colours to much or her look, just fresh it up a bit :grin:

Hope you like it!

(And now I'm supposed to try this whole attachment thing for the first time, might mess it up LOL)

Here is a trial.
Hope it's not to bad.
