Since there are many August birthdays on my calendar, I chose it with its gladioulus. It's a flower that is not depicted here on SCS very often, so I thought that could be a fun aspect too. Using a photo as a guide, I roughly sketched the gladioli(plural of gladiolus) before watercoloring them. To qualify for the MIX challenge and its requirement of a least two forms of medium, I did the green bits and bg with Copics.
This card is also for PTI's 9th anniversary challenge today using a "Color Pop Fortune Teller"....an origami-like folded "chart" that is given on Nichole's blog.
