With tonight's card you might need to think outside the box . This week the cue card over at CASology is 'Pond'. Now I don't have anything in my craft stash that makes you instantly think of a pond so I went with colours instead.
To create my 'pond' colours in the back ground I used 4 shades of ProMarkers blended together. I used my Memory Box die to represent vegetation round a pond. I told you to think outside the box!
Might have another bash at this challenge during the week if I think of something better but this will need to do for the moment. I got some new Waltzing Mouse stamps in the post today, so off to have a play about with them.
Thanks for visiting
