This is an ad for the HBO series based on the novels "The Number 1 Ladies Detective Agency" which is set in Botswana. Because I love Africa, I saved the magazine ad and planned to make necklace pendants out of the bottom of the ad, which pictured a silhouetted safari scene.
I used the top part of the ad to make the image for the ways to use it Challenge today. I hope this counts as creating my own image(out of found art).

Love that you used a magazine image, I like to do that too. Maybe it's just me (living in the midwest), but I don't see a lot of stamp images depicting black americans, so I was pleasantly surprised and pleased to see this lovely lady the focus of a card here at SCS. (I've actually been looking for a few black family type images to use for some cards that I'd like to make to send to Cards for Heroes. Because I know there are a lot of black military families.)
You did a nice job on this card. The DP you used is a perfect comliment to the colors in the image. Looks great!
