It may not be a long road to a friend's but I sure took a long road to this card LOL!!
I actually made my challenge card several days ago and didn't like it - BLAH. The next morning, I looked again and decided it wasn't too bad so I started to photograph it. Then I didn't have a memory card in my camera so I set it aside and got distracted. The next day, when I looked at the card, I just thought "Blech." So last night ~ I took the image off the original and completely changed it!
This card uses some deeper colors and more contrast and I think that's what saved me! It's a bit of an odd color combination though: PTI's Ripe Avocado, Summer Sunrise and white, and Crafty Secrets' Radiant DP ~ love that paper!!
I also used Spica glitter pens on the image ~ love them!
Thanks for the challenge, Darlene ;) !
