Today's Inspiration Challenge takes us to Poketo, and here is the photo I chose because of the earthy, neutral colours - Organic Artisan Soaps. The card is designed with gray, kraft, cream and similar earthy colours, and is also for a Flourishes Beautiful World Tour challenge in which the theme was Neutrals. All edges have been sponged with Ranger inks for a distressed look. The image was watercoloured, spritzed with ink, dotted with a black fine line pen and then highlighted with a white gel pen.

Have been at the cabin (no internet) and am just now checking the gallery. Like what you did with the neutral colors. The time and talent you give each card always shows and impresses.
