DDS Challenge #15 "Friendship"

The DDS challenge this go around was for a project using a Dustin Pike image that involved "Friendship."
I hope you enjoy my card.

DDS Challenge 14.... Sketch

The challenge at Doodle Dragon Studio this week was to use a card sketch with a Dustin Pike image to create our project. This is the sketch and above is the card I created for submission.  I think it turned out ok. Enjoy!

Evolution of a card...

I started this card by using a grayscale print from MSOffice clip art.  This isn't the same image, but you get the idea.

Then I started adding color using Sakura Souffle pens and Sakura Gel pens.  I finished coloring with Copic markers.

I split this image into two sections and added a pattern paper background from DCWV's Flower Shower Stack.

Frankly, I still was not happy with the look of this card, so I added the purple buttons and cord.  Hope you like it!
