Gone Fishing

Here's another card I had tucked away in my picture folder from my last box of OWH cards. This image is from Mo's Digital Pencil. She has such a marvelous illustration style. If you haven't visited her  in awhile you will be delighted by all the new images that have been added in the past couple of months. 

I will admit that many of Mo's image are quite detailed and therefore fairly complex to color but even when they don't come out exactly as I had envisioned (which is at least 90% of the time) I always enjoy the challenge of coloring them.

I created the green compass embellishment by simply punching it right out of a printed pattern and then distressing the edge with a sanding block and adding a basic brad. Looking to your patterned papers can be an easy way to get an unusual embellishment that's perfectly coordinated to the rest of your design.

Happy Crafting!
