Well, ever since replacing our flourescent type lights with incandescent, despite having an ott lite - I still cannot get a good photograph at night.. Perhaps later in the day I will edit it.
This is for two challenges.. TLC162 Tole but not a flower - I have popped up both the back mouse , and the red lobster at the front.
It is also for these months dirty dozen product challenge - and that is to use a button/s in on your card.. the three *wooden * poles with the *rope* tied around them is actually a button that I cut the shank off of.
Although you may not be able to see it, I used CE on most of the grass fronds, the lobster, the big shell, and the small green shell.
I used mainly gamsol magic for colouring , with a little chalk as well. Thanks for looking!!

Deborah! OMGoodness! This is so cute! I have never seen this image before- it could also be considered for TSBC#9- all you need is some cracked glass somewhere! Lol! Like this card isn't perfect already. Your scene is amazing. I can't believe all the detail you have- the button is perfect and I love how you have popped some of the images and highlighted with CE! Beautiful result! More! More! TFS

Your color combo is terrific and your coloring is fantastic!!! I love the popped up critters, especially the lobster! The lobster looks like he's tapping that mouse on the back trying to get his attention! Your posts with ropes embellishment is so cool!! I love this!!!
