I made this card for this week's There She Goes challenge which was a sketch by Pam Varnell as well as this week's Way to use it Challenge which is to use buttons. For my card, I've used the set appropriately called Ice Cream, a super cute yet very inexpensive set. I've had it for about a month now and was waiting for the right opportunity to use it on a card. This week's sketch just seemed so appropriate and with my DP from Bo Bunny that I've used, I love how it turned out. As usual, I've watercolored the image with both Tombow and SU markers. I've been trying really hard lately to get shading etc into my watercoloring and this is one of few cards that I feel like I've hit it spot on. Yeah me!!! Not much explanation with this card, just followed the sketch, cut up some DP, watercolored the image and threw on a button (as the cherry on the ice cream).

Beautiful card! And, YES, I'd say you got the shading just perfect! In fact, that's what grabbed my attention from the gallery. Taking a good look so I can improve my shading too! TSMFS, Kat
