A birthday card for my friend who goes sculling several times a week before work. I saw a cool line drawing on pinterest and I CASEd it. I actually traced the little boat and part of the body. It was a cat on the boat, so I changed it into a gal, and lifted a photo of the birthday girl from facebook and used just her face. Paper pieced the shirt and coloured the shorts with a copic marker. The inside of the boat and the three trees to the left have dots on them made with the tip of my pen, to fit today's TLC challenge.

I absolutely adore this very special card! Your friend will be thrilled! Nice use of the pixels....and yeah you for adding the very personal touch! Coolio! We have several lakes where I live that support sculling and I have several friends that are passionate about the sport ( these are ladies past a certain decade as well)... Fab upper body w/o. I love to ride across the covered bridges on my bike and see them gliding across the lake! Did I say I love this card!

I missed this! Love that you used a photo of your friend on here. I have only done this a couple of times. I should remember to do it more often! Great way to personalize a card!
