... it sure did feel like that at work today - what a hard one it was - people were coming at me everywhere :) I am not complaining though because I am very blessed to have my job and lucky to work with wonderful people. I don't think I'm going to get to any cards done over the next few days because I'm going to be working from home some evenings, but since I did so many over the weekend, I'll be able to post over the next few days, hurray !!
This is a sketch challenge given by Robin Willis over at The Pink Elephant and must say I had a time getting this one to agree with me, but after looking at it for a while, I'm pretty happy with it. I had originally made this card for my uncle who hasn't been feeling that well for a while now; but after finishing it, I showed it to Jim and he goes, "nope, it's too dark, you need to make a more colorful one". He's right, Uncle Don is always so upbeat and ready to tickle everyone he comes in contact with, a bright and sunny card would be much better for him. I'm going to take this one to work and place it in my card box in case someone needs a "thinking of you" card one day. I'll post the new card I make for Uncle Don once completed. Thanks Robin for this challenging sketch - it was a great one and I know I will use it again.
I hope you all have a great evening.
Janet

So beautiful!! Great take on this sketch!! WOW!! :)
ReplyDeleteWow this is stunning! You did an amazing job with this sketch Ms. Janet! I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteIt's a perfect take on the sketch Janet, but may i be so bold as to say maybe more suited to a bereavement card...If your Uncle is very upbeat a more colourful one would be lovely for him :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining us at TPE...

Janet your card is beautiful. I agree with Carol - it would make an amazing bereavement card. It's very tranquil and soothing. I really really love how you have interpreted the sketch.
