A funny thing happened while I was making this card.
Without even intending to, I completely case'd another card.
I'm still unsure of how to do shading/highlighting with my ProMarkers so whenever I color an image for the first time I'll go look at how others have done them.
My search for this incredible Mo Manning image, "You're kinda' cute," lead me to a card done a few years ago by the massively talented Jak among a few others. The use of the pins was something that really stuck out to me. Hehehe... When I finished my card, I went back to the search to see who should be credited with the idea. That's when I saw that not only did I fall in love with the pins, but I also loved the trio of buttons, the flags of ribbons, and well, just about everything on the card. You can go look at Jak's card here.
How I could possibly remember each little detail on this card after looking at for just a few minutes and yet I constantly walk into a room and have to wonder what the heck I'm doing there? It has to be some sort of crafter's brain syndrome. After I saw what I had done, I emailed Jak and asked if it would be okay that I included a link to her original card. She (like most crafters) was so sweet and generous that she didn't hesitate in agreeing to me sharing. I would like to again think her for her amazing inspiration and kindness.
This card can be found in the following challenges:
