Such a beautiful job coloring Carla! It looks so real. I can understand now (from our emails) why it took you so long to color!

Mike Funke said...

Carla, this is phenomenal! At first I thought it was a piece of DSP and I couldn't remember which one had beautifully colored images like this. THEN I RECOGNIZED THE STAMP! Amazing!

Stampin' Pretty said...

Your coloring is gorgeous. I like how you used a rectangular image vs. a circle - great way to show creativity.

Hugs, M

Anne Marie said...

Carla, this is so beautiful! I love the clean design and your coloring on the stamped image is gorgeous! That DSP was just added to my ever-growing wish list, too. I'm sure your brother loved his card. Have a great day today! :)
