Creating Shadows and Highlights

To make the Barbie shop design more realistic, we need to add shadows and highlights. Use the pen tool and the colors mentioned to create shadows in specific areas. Adjust the opacity and transparency to achieve the desired effect. Additionally, use light colors and the pencil tool to add highlights to certain parts of the design.

Adding Final Touches
