Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
Last evening, Mark, Markie and I drove quite a distance to have dinner with Butterfly Ears and her husband! They are on vacation in South Florida, (they are from Canada), and we live in North Florida. Mark found a Cracker Barrel about 3 hours from our house to meet! I must say....Meeting Nicole was SOOOOO worth the 6 hour round tripper! LOL! She's sooooo funny, and sweet!
Of course, Speedy the Cat was a topic of conversation! LOL! He must have known, too, as he didn't IGNORE us when we got home! LOL!
The background was sponged to create the sky. The frog, lily and cat tails were colored with markers and then had gemstones added.
The leaves, butterfly and prima were sponged to get a 2-tone effect.

Another cute one, Faith. So glad you got to meet one of the fellow SCSers. I'd love to drive 3 hrs. to meet you, but Ohio is a bit more than 3 hrs.!! Have a great day
