1st pocket card attempt

Photo Details

Poster: duvalld

I would like to make pocket cards for Christmas, and I just sat down the other day to try it out... I just wanted to see the dimensions and difficulty. I really wasn't planning on making anything to send, but before I knew it, I really liked how it was turning out, and it was a perfect card for a friend.
Unfortunatly, the three word tags across the front are pretty difficult to see in the scan.

Gorgeous! I will definitely have to try to make one myself soon! I relaly like your color combination, the shading, the sponging/aging and the combination of sets. TFS!

All my best,

Nancy

Really nice 1st try!!! Love the colors and esp. your dtp. I know what you mean about the scanning...it NEVER looks as good as IRL - you just can't capture the details! TFS
