Another great inspiration site. Thank you for that Lori. I call this my eclectic card because one- I am using images hand doodled from Lisa Lara, two-the dots are borrowed from Faith she just doesn't know it yet, three- the chair is one of my doodles and four Better Homes and Gardens for the room inspiration. Doesn't get any more eclectic than that!.......briefly.....
I painted the bg after drinking three cups of coffee so my plaid lines are a little squiggly. All the images were colored with copics before coffee and then cut out.
Put the images on my bg, popping up parts. This was then put on a card sponged ruby red. Added the Faith dots last, good thing cause I rush drying time as you can see a few smeared dots here.
Well, thanks again to Lisa Lara and Faith for their help with my card even tho they don't know they helped me yet! lol............TFL :0)
