For my card I used some new papers that I had purchased while at the beach in SC with Cely. She had taken me to a store called Tuesday Morning, which I had never heard of before (noe of those in MI or WV!). Basically, it is a close out store, and they had a stack of scrapbook supplies and papers that we dug through for quite some time! The pack these came from is called Springtime, and is from Carol Wilson Fine Arts, Inc. The picket fence was punched with a MS punch, and the flower is a Prima from my stash, as well as the brad. I added some "dirt" to the bottom of my image with my SU markers. I haven't mustered up the courage to try the light shading around the image, like I've admired on so many other stampers images, yet. I will......I just didn't want to mess up! hahaha! I printed a couple more of these colored in images that I had done in PSE, so I will practice on those. :0)

This is such a stunning card. Thanks for sharing all the information on how you made it. I too want one of the fence punches!! Glad you mentioned Tuesday Mornings in MB. We are going there soon and my fav. scrapbook store has gone out of business in that area :(. I have picked up some DP at Marshall's at times too. There are tutorials on shading but basically I use the lightest gray for shading. You can check my blog on Monday and you can see what I did...not perfect though!!Thanks for joining us at Craft Your Passion this week for our "Anything Goes Challenge." We hope to see you again on Monday for our next challenge. XX
