 | | Wonderful sketch! Had to do a couple of minor tweaks to fit my image, but it should still be recognizable. I'm also adding it to the Fan Club Gallery, let the sun shine in!
I wanted a real tropical feel to go along with this fabulous beach scene from Our Daily Bread designs. I colored it with a combination of sponging, markers and water colors. Highlights were added with a white gel pen. For the frames, I used rectangular dies to make the white frame then lined it with a black pen. The raffia frame is a die cut piece of cardboard wrapped with raffia then a little brown ink was sponged on top.
The flower was die cut numerous times then sponged to get the right colors. I added a simple raffia bow behind it. The background paper was stitched together a little haphazardly for a little extra something. The finished card is 5 x 7.
Thanks so much for looking! More views and closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff |
