CC159 Thoughts of Father

Photo Details

Poster: BoxerMax

This was a great challenge for me! In my last SU! order I had received my first ever order of Basic Gray paper as well as textured white paper and I was able to use both for this challenge.
The main image was stamped in StazOn Black ink then water colored using ink from various ink pads. The faux stitching was done with a going gray marker instead of basic gray because I thought the basic gray was a little too over powering.
TFL, Cindy.
