CC257 Forest Friends

Photo Details
Poster: pawallen142

 I have been working on this card since 9:30 this morning. Many interrutions.

One a very pleasent one. My son called and wanted to skype with us! He's in Germany, trying to adjust to life over in the severe cold and unusally snow they have been having this winter. We were on the video for about 2 1/2 hours. Of course we got to "visit" with 3 of our grands.

At first I was not too sure about these colors. Then I got a piece of each and realized they have great potential. I cut out the center and sponged around it to give it some depth. Popped on some pearls. Instead of two patterns, I put a pattern on the pattern by scoring it. Thanks for the great color combo challenge.

Your card was worth the time it took. How very nice that you were able to spend so much time with your son and his family, I'm sure it made your day.

Lovely, really like the scoring on your dp, great idea and the sponging on the edge makes the centre more defined. What a wonderful card.
