Faux Postage Stamps: Weihnachten
2 hours ago
If you enlarge this, you’ll notice (as I did) that she looks as if she has cataracts, lol – I used Prisma pencils to colour and it partly covers the black ink – must be more careful in future :-)
I’m entering this into the Unruly Paper Arts April Reader Art Quest 2, which is sponged backgrounds.

Another beauty Cath, I like the slightly glazed wistful look. It is one of my favourite images, the shading makes her really stand out, fab quote. x
lol awwwwwwww (I did enlarge it and you are right lol)
Beautiful sponging. This is your forté - you are the queen of sponge work :0)
Gorgeous! Thanks for getting inky with us at UPA.
Wishing you a lovely day, Sam x
Bless her I hope she gets better soon!! Love the colouring, and the sentiment is lovely.
Love the background, but I agree about the glaze over those eyes, you can really see it when you enlarge the picture!!!
Glad you're finding time to art and have fun Cath

Well I love it and feel very privileged for the card to be sent to me. Until yesterday Cath didn't know I too have a catarac in my right eye so the card is even more special.
Love that quote and your beautiful background, Cath. So glad to see you at UPA!
Lovely card. I have enjoyed looking thru your blog with so much eye candy. I became a follower.
