So! Today's card was a conglomeration of kinds. I saw a really cool card on Doreen's blog where she utilized a fence as the front of her card and just thought it was the most awesomist thing. She has a pattern on there too. I adjusted her pattern somewhat to fit my card and image requirements, but the inspiration is hers. . And as it turned out, this project is perfect for this week's theme at Mo's Digital Pencil:
How Does Your Garden Grow
I grabbed my scraps and made a stitched landscape for the view beyond the fence which was quite fun!
The fence I used for a board to write a message on later.
And the lovely Mo Manning image below, colored with Prismacolors:
OOps! OMGoodness! I forgot to color the hinges! How did that happen?
You don't see that, ok? lol
So I hope you can play along with us!

Lovely card!
Awwwwwwwww. This is adorable. I've looked at this image several times to buy, but have never gotten around to it. You did a lovely job. And I love the "stitched" hills beyond the fence. (I've also wanted to open a fence or door, but there again...) Hugs, dj

Hi Dorcas!

This is great! Very crafty! I love the fence and how it looks like wood. Also love the stitched hills. It is perfect how it opens up and the scene is there. You keep doing different things which is awesome. I am in a crafting rut right now. Would not have noticed the hinges. What compels us to share the flaws with the world? I have to if I notice something. Anyway, colored or uncolored it is great!
Adore the image, your stitched background is just fabulous - the fence front is wonderful, just a dream of a card again. Thanks for joining us at Amber's Crafts and Stuff's New Technique challenge this week, hope you see you back again. Hugs lin
