I havent been to the t-parties for a long time so wanted to join to party finally. Heath loves hunting and fishing , and Pat Smethers did a card I kind of cased. ...~Sweet Spot~ by patsmethers at Splitcoaststampers. Dont have that neat stamp so drew it. My sky got way darker then I meant...maybe its wee early in the am, and its still a bit dark and its a sun-rise instead of sunset...:0). I also wanted to try and catch our queen for the week Angela or Arizonamaine...I saw a few card she did using a frame around her pic. I tried it but ended up being changed for sizing and mailing purposes when done, but still same idea that kind of owrked..here is her card..WT336 & CAS131 Friends Flowers by Arizona Maine at Splitcoaststampers.
So I drew the pic. colored it with water crayons, songed the sky using a ripped paper towel and just a bit extra, water colored and sponged the water and sponged the grass a bit to darken it and give it a bit of dif. shades. I thne added the leaves, made the frame, raised it over another dp on the card base and added the verse. Thanks for visiting...:0)

If you can draw like that you certainly don't need to spend money on stamps! And I really like the sky - surely the best fishing is either early or late in the day .

Oh Wendy, this is awesome, Sister!! You are way past doodling when you can draw like this - kind of like Cathy (Mutnik) drawing Curt the Cow - you will become famous for this great artwork - God blessed your hands BIG when He gave you this talent - bless your heart for sharing it with us and sending it to Heath!
