Believe…a sketch “challenge”

For today’s sketch challenge at Splitcoast, I chose to use Nature Silhouettes from the Kim Hughes Collection at Cornish Heritage Farms.  My first challenge was the sketch itself, but the bigger challenge has been getting a good picture of the card.  The gold here is really more of a soft brownish-gold.  The first time I tried, it looked orange.  Now it’s TOO gold.  And I couldn’t figure out how to adjust the color in my photo editing software.  (I get so aggravated when this happens. lol.)

I like my stamped images here, and I like the stitching, but something just still doesn’t sit right with me.  I believe it’s the hemp tied too close to the center of the card.  But I couldn’t figure out how to adjust for that and stick with the sketch.  Overall, I think I like it.  (I think.  If I have time, I may fiddle with it some more.)

Back to the stamp room for me…lots to do.  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day!
