The layout of the paper piecing is from my SIL. The colors and black background of this skin inspired me to take something that had been half done and finish it in this way. Originally, I was thinking I'd make a Christmas card by pulling out the reds, but the "skin" inspiration made me rethink my plan. The image is colored with markers.
I love the way everything ties together to create a dramatic effect and more versatile card.

You did a great job using the colors of Space Mining!! How different your card is from that which inspired you!! I love the layout from your SIL.
