A little bit about my card ...
When I saw the challenge - Far Away ... it made me think of missing a loved one that is far way, so I made a "missing you" card. :)
I used one of the wonderful digital images from our sponsor, called Pretty Petals. Just love this sunflower!! I colored it in Copics and then used a Wink of Stella pen to add some glimmer ... just outlining the petals and leaves of the flower, and adding it to the cross-hatching of the flower center. This is my first time using this pen and I LOVE IT! It flows so smoothly and it's easy to "paint" on some shimmer. I'm including a close-up below so you can see how just adding an outline adds lots of sparkle.
I hope you'll join us for this latest challenge, ATCAS#36 - Far Away ... which is open for two weeks. In order to be eligible for our prize, please make sure your entry is CAS.
