What a fun challenge! Phyllis Harris' images are so uplifting. I colored with copics and enhanced with pencils. Her dress got a bit messy, so I paper pieced it and shaded the dp with pencil. Sponged the sky in a dark blue but the image colors looked too cool. Sponged again in brown and got mud. Since I had no paper to match I swiped the same ink pads on the craft mat, spritzed with water and dragged glossy through it giving me a marbled matching color. Stencils were used to add the chevrons and dots to the background. Thanks for looking.

This is strikingly beautiful, Nancy. Love the predominant shades of gray and then your little girl in the warm brown tones...brilliant. The whole card has such a dreamy feeling. LOVE it!!
