MMSC41, Sunflower Siesta

Photo Details

Poster: Jakester

Seeing as I have missed a few of these challenges, I thought I'd make sure I did this one. And House Mouse comes through again! Image colored with Prismas, edges inked with Colorbox ink. I added sunflowers in top right corner and sunflower seeds in lower left corner, keeping with the theme of the image! I actually bought a tiny amount of hamster food from the bulk center at the grocery store, as I only needed a few sunflower seeds. They came in at a whopping total of 11 cents! And some leftover-not that I'd eat them. Yuck! I hope you like it, and thanks for another great sketch. Glad I found time to play along! : )

Oh my, will you just look at those sunflower seeds! It sounds as though you actually had a concept in mind and then went and spent $.11 on your embellishments. Yikes, I could never ever have thought out a card on such a grand scale, but I'm elated you did. This is just precious! The papers are extraordinary and of course the image is just too adorable. I cant color HM images. I've tried and tried and after seeing this one, I know I shall never try again. Perfectly fabulous card, dahling!
