CASE a DT member

Hello friends, we have something very different for you at As You Like It Challenge this time.

We want you to CASE a card by one of the Design Team...yes, we are positively encouraging copying!! Takes me back to the boys on the school bus hunched over exercise books copying work on the way to school. 

Now I love all my DT Sisters and their work but I just had to copy Annette, I have known her the longest and have watched and loved her style as it has evolved over the years. I consider myself to be very lucky and have quite a few Netty "originals" in my posession too.

So, here is her card...



and here is mine...



I used Toasty Greetings by MFT, coloured with Promarkers, I did consider (for  authentic forgery purposes!!) trying my hand at painting but came to the realisation that I will never be as good with the paintbrush as Annette so stuck with what I know!!

So, there you have it a pretty good copy I think!!

See you soon xx

It's a brilliant copy, Sarah, right down to the sediment, polkie dots, and color! I have to say I do like the black matting you used on yours. I think it draws the eyes right straight to the black coat of your sweet penguin! Poor dear. I do hope he finds a fire soon to roast those marshmallows!! Happy Holidays! Hugs, Darnell
