Barbara has given us some great colors with the dessert of travel so I chose this fun image and used colored pencils. I am trying to practice with my pencils but I am finding it very difficult

Your adorable little traveler has never heard about packing light, has she?!?! No matter, she is adorable, and some gentleman will probably offer to carry her bags! You're doing a great job with the pencils, love the pierced frames!

Love this travelin' gal that you colored so great with pencils. I would not know that it was challenging for you, it looks awesome to me. Love the perforated framing, too!

I think your coloring with pencils is beautifully done, Pam. IMO, pencils take a lot of patience. (one reason I do fast watercolors. ; ) ) It is a darling image and perfect for a "bon voyage" card.

This is such a great looking card!! I love your borders with the dots. The image looks like she may be moving out with all of that luggage - WOW!! And your coloring with the pencils is coming along great!!
