Hello, I picked out a bg that I had made for another challenge and didn't use. It is plum and pink Radiant Pearls sponged on with alcohol soaked cotton balls. My gray is actually silver but it was the closest to slate gray that I had. My oval element is the horse and rider, my circle is the moon (vellum). I flipped the sketch. I used a star instead of a circle for the element #7.
So This card is for the color challenge AND the sketch.
Just a note, in case anyone wants to use Radiant Pearls as a bg, the VersaFine ink bled on it so I was not very happy about that. Maybe StazOn would be better? Memento is not black enough.
Thanks for looking!

WOW - would you believe this. I have just uploaded my card and there was yours - nearly identical and using the same colours for the sky. Great minds hey! I love your sky as well. Who would think that we are nearly 12,000 miles away from each other - he he. Great job.

Oh Ms. Robin there you go again with your delightful colors. I'm not an SU girl either so I always have to use the wrong/close thereto colors. Love your rough rider silhouette and bg. It's a great card for both challenges. Hey, did you get fired yet?

Oh my, Robin!!! Your card is marvelous! Love the background you created with the Radiant Pearls - great technique. And the silhouette image is striking against that marvelous sky! Remarkable piece of art!
