Since I knew that I would be away, I finished my set of cards for the Mystery Swap back in mid-April and sent them along to our wonderful hostess, Melina. She chose Blessed Mouse for us to work with in this round and here's what I came up with:
This sweet little mouse was colored with Spectrum Noir markers, and the background was sponged with chalk.
Here's a close up of the upper right corner where a cute little butterfly has been sparkled up with some glitter:
And here's a closer look at the lower corner where the little dragonfly embellishment is added:
I want to thank Melina for giving us such a sweet & spring-like image to work with on this round! I can hardly wait to see my swap returns and admire the creations of our other participants.
Thanks for stopping by! I return home tomorrow and hope to get back into my regular routine of visiting your blogs soon and, of course, posting here on a more regular basis.
Hugs & blessings to each of you.
