SC411 Thanks for Gifts

Photo Details

Poster: CAKath

Just a little quick card for the sketch challenge. Some nights you are just not 'on' but here is it. I used an embossed border on the left for that panel. The main panel was watercolored using ink from the ink pads. A little tea stain around the edges.

Thanks for looking.

Love the way you used the embosslit for your strip element and the sponging too!

A beautiful Thanksgiving card, Kathy. Your image is SO beautifully colored and I like how you kept the bg simple so this image would be the real focal point.
