I had colored this image last year when I got my first copic markers. Since it was about the right size I thought I'd incorporate this into the sketch card. I used a square nestie to emboss the edge, sponging the sky while the paper was still in the frame. I added stars with blue glitter. The brown panel is faux stitched and sponged with brown. The base is stamped with a row of pine trees, sponged with blue for the sky. I added baroque swirls and navy stars with glittered centers. That's about it- a lot of stamping and sponging.
Thanks for viewing and commenting.
