SC395 African Easel_lb

Photo Details

Poster: Clownmom

When I saw the layout for today's Sketch Challenge, I wondered what it would like like as an easel card -- so that's what I did. I sponged the sky, lined up the DP at the bottom, and stamped the "serengeti" tree over the sky and grass. Then I cut the panel into three pieces.

A wonderful easel card, Lois. With your choice of DPs, one can feel the heat of the savanna. Wonderful ethnic DPs with your images.
