For A muse's challenge in the lounge: "time to hit the books"...
My son is reading the Magic Treehouse series and his current book is about Knights & Castles...I remembered I had coloured this image ages ago when I was first playing around with my copics...amazing how quickly a card can be made when the main image is all ready to go!

Awesome card!! Great details in the coloring, the red "flag" off the side and how you stamped the castle in gray so it looks like it's in the distance! Very tricky!! Great layout too!!! It's just a perfect card all around!! TFS!

I'm digging the technique you used to make the castle and knight scene. Great idea and execution. Also, those tiny splashes of red really catch my eye.

This is such a great card. Love the gray base. The white matted with black really makes your image pop. Great coloring. Love the red ribbon on the side.
