Ally gave us what I call "a wide open" sketch for today's challenge. The large main panel was blank...leaving us to fill or not to fill with anything we desired. I watercolored a large Penny Black image which needs space. : )

I have to agree with Vicky! Definitely frame worthy on this lovely little masterpiece. This sketch was perfect for it and I love the little doily looking trim peeking out from the top and bottom.

There's a lot of watercoloring going on today in the gallery today! This is one gorgeous work of art, Sallie! Your watercoloring is breathtaking and truly worthy of a frame so that it could be proudly displayed!

Sallie, your watercoloring of this image is superb. I'd frame it as well, or at least display it in my stamping room. Just gorgeous!

The texture on your water color paper shows up so nicely, Sallie! And what else can be said about your coloring skills? I'm not sure except that you always color to perfection! A truly beautiful piece of artwork that deserves to be framed and hung~
