Been feeling the urge to practice some coloring and this Penny Black image was a perfect choice. I've had it forever but the poor thing hasn't seen any love for quite awhile.
Since the image is so detailed, I kept the layout super-CAS. Also made the card slightly wider than A2 so as not to crowd the focal image.
Once the image was colored, I added a light wash of Y000 around the image to add some softness and gave a light wash of Wink of Stella over the watering can and some of the flower petals - As always, the camera doesn't capture, but so pretty IRL with the added sparkle.
This card also works for TammieE's DTGD challenge. If you aren't already a Fan Club member, you still have a few days to become one and join in the fun!
