I had another play with my watercolour pencils and this is what I came up with.
Image is Penny Black - Fly with Me - I have added some very subtle colour to the background using chalks which doesn't really show in the photo.
The paper is from K & Company
Border Punches from Martha Stewart and EK Success
Ribbon - PapermaniaSentiment - Ladybug Crafts - Shoes n Bags Stamp Set
I would like to enter this into the following challenges
The Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge - Get Punchy
Paper Pretties - Use an Animal on your Card
Crafty Purple Frog - Summer Fun
Hope you all have a lovely day whatever you get up to.
See you all tomorrow for Christmas Card Club Card.

I love the card Beastest Friend!! I think the pencils are the way to go. The shading is always perfect and it's not too difficult to grasp for beginners like me!

Oh what a sweet image. I love that you've given him centre stage and kept the rest of the card clean and fresh. :)
