I made this card with Pat Smethers. She taught me how to do the Bubba Clouds and how to mask. Both things I could never seem to get my arms around before. Thank you so much Pat for all the wonderful instructions, the fantastic images (I came home with a gazillion) and a terrific set of Anna Griffith Bees & Dragonflies (MY FAVORITES) and so many more things! It was a fantastic visit of giving and receiving. So, here is my first cloud and masking card for my Dad who took care of my critters while we were gone. Dad hates skeeters. Thanks for looking.

How 'balanced'! Lol! Just kidding (altho it is perfectly balanced!) Judy- your card is so fun. I love each detail and how perfectly you watercolored and flocked. And, your 'Bubba' clouds are great! (Too easy, wasn't it?) Your pop will love this. Thank you for my package of photo hangers- yours looks great on this, and I can't wait to use mine. Love you sis.

Your scene turned out fabulous! How wonderful you could learn from the master! I hate skeeters too! I hope your bear clears those suckers out! Love your DP! Oh, and I do hope many mosquitoes were harmed in the making of this card!
