I posted this last week and had to delete it 2 hrs later when I realized I was a week early...I think some of my brain cells have migrated to a better habitat and there is too much vacant space in my head. So, here is my card on the right week. I had this image forever but could never decide how to color it. It had a white background, but it did not look too good. I colored the bg in with black sharpie which made the image look like a blob of melted rainbow sherbet. Finally, I added wispy lines with my white gel pen to highlight the image and everything came into focus. The 2 die cut frames were colored with green acrylic paint and popped up with pop dots. I also added this to the WT gallery because it is sort of a fairy child and his pet unicorn. I hope you play along with us in this week's F4A377 challenge. TFL, Francie

Oh my goodness Francie this is jaw dropping spectacular. The design is out of this world and as for your colouring.....I am speechless. I bought some Sharpie pens after seeing all your magical creations, sadly the packet didn't come with skill. You are the Queen of Colour my dear friend. I love this to bits.

Another magical card, Francie! Your brain cells are in the creative realm right where they belong supporting your whimsical creations. I knew this was yours as soon as I saw it in the gallery. Nobody does these gorgeous bright color like you, my friend!! Love your card and I'm so glad it fit in my challenge. Thanks for treating us to your fanciful work of art.

So THAT is what happened! I saw this beautiful card last week but didn't comment right away and then, when I went looking for it to comment, I couldn't find it! This is gorgeous with spectacular color. Fabulous!

Now I get to see the wispy white, and it's even more amazing and wonderful than I was expecting. Bless your patience in colouring the background black - it looks fabulous. There's a girl in work who would love this, I think she almost does believe in unicorns!

Francie I love how you colored this image. I colored this one once and left the BG white and did more traditional colors but yours with the fun bright colors and the black BG with the added white wispy lines is brilliant! Super stunning card!
