What a fun challenge! Phyllis Harris' images are so uplifting. I colored with copics and enhanced with pencils. Her dress got a bit messy, so I paper pieced it and shaded the dp with pencil. Sponged the sky in a dark blue but the image colors looked too cool. Sponged again in brown and got mud. Since I had no paper to match I swiped the same ink pads on the craft mat, spritzed with water and dragged glossy through it giving me a marbled matching color. Stencils were used to add the chevrons and dots to the background. Thanks for looking.

It's really neat the way you used a stencil for your chevrons and dots Nancy!! I also like the way you added the pencil. A sweet image and a sweet card!!

Well it all turned out so soft and beautiful! Love this card! Nice stitching......not many cards look very well using gray as a matt, but yours deserves an A+++++
