Today Sabrina wanted stars on our cards. I was inspired by a phone call from and old friend.....details....
We were reminiscing about a backpack trip we took with another girlfriend many many moons ago. The three of us and two dogs set off on a five mile trip up in the Colorado mountains.
We had the best time. Ate the best food, no freeze dried stuff for us. Plus, when we left our campsite it was well stocked with wood for the next backpacker. Those were the days, not to be repeated.
So I made this card for my friend. I used a Mo's Digital image, one of my favorites, and drew the scene around it.
Coloring was done with a combination of Sharpie & Bic markers, w/c pencils, chalk pastel pencils and a gel pen. The white dots were made with a stylus and white acrylic paint.
The stars were traced from a very old SU stencil that I paid way to much for on eBay back when I didn't quite understand the bidding process. BUT that is another story. hehe
Well, hope my friend likes her card. She just had a knew shoulder put in/on?...plus a new hip back in December. We definitely won't be backpacking any time soon. hehe....TFL :0)
