When I saw the sketch today, I thought WOW a large panel to create a scene on. I was so excited and energized......THEN I went to work. Now I am pooped! Another very windy day, which means a lot of extra work for me. So I apologize for my entry today. Not quite up to par..............details.......
I stamped my Charliene, which is new this month from Clear Dollar Stamps. Colored here with prisma pencils and gamsol then clear eb. I masked off half of the card. On one side I made it stormy and raining. Then on the other side I made it bright and sunny.
For my #2 a & b panels I sponged the two different blues and greens then ran through the cb using two different folders. Put them on red cs, then on the white card that I sponged the edges.
Put my main image panel on red cs then on top of the #2 panels which were already on the card.
Stamped, clear eb and popped up the sentiment, which went perfectly with the rain or shine scene. Well, hope it's not too horrible............TFS :0)

Cathy, you are being too hard on yourself. Not up to par...phooey. I love your split scene. I love how well it goes with the sentiment. If I had to choose between the two though, I would choose sunshine, I have had too many rainy, cloudy, overcast days. I want sunshine and warm days.

Well now, will you look at this Nutmeg! I cant say that I've ever seen a card quite like this - maybe on the weather channel but not in the gallery! Love what you've gone and brought us today. Simply amazing that you have such vision!

Cathy! I love this! What a sweet image. I cannot get enough of Charlie Horse. Your coloring is knock out and I love the contrast in the sky. Great job, Nutmeg! lol! (Great Mutnik doodling too!!!)
