This card is for Abby, a 15 1/2 year old girl who is undergoing chemo treatments for a year, due to a rare form of cancer. She was the destination for MMTPT124, and I thought I'd send her this "Thinking of Ewe" card.
Printed the image, then cut the tree border at the top. Colored the image with Prismacolor pencils and layered on Early Expresso. Sponged the sky on Whisper White cardstock and doodled around the edges. I'll probably add a sentiment at the top.....
Thanks for Looking!

Hilda,
This is such a darling card - love your image and the scene is awesome. I love the doodles around the top of the card. I dropped Abby a card before I found out there would be an Abby gallery - anyway, I didn't take a pic of it - but there is always next month.

This is a darling card for Abby, Hilda. Great idea for how to use this stamp from Designed2Delight Digital Stamps. I saw it there a few days ago and think it is a really cute one. Love the way you made a scene with it - drawing and coloring the hills and fence. It looks kind of like one of those Early Americana paintings. I like the way you used the Alpine Trail edger in the bg too. It gives it even more depth against your pretty sponged sky. The doodled border and adding the Early Espresso matt only only part way up the side to the sky is a great finishing touch.
No, I haven't gotten my stamping room back, and the house is even more torn up, so it's going to be awhile before I don't have have to step over and around boxes. There's just a narrow pathway through the room.

Adorable. I just got this image from Faith's blog but you definitely took it way beyond my creativity with this awesome scene. I am sure Abby will love this!!! Thank you for continuing to send smiles to Abby.
hugs,
