Today we're celebrating the life of Keith L. Smith, father of Melissa Jenkins (artist/owner of MelJen's Designs). Melissa's father passed away a year ago today. Melissa designed this special set to celebrate her father's love of fishing.
Here is the card I created to honor Melissa's memory of her father.
My image is colored with Prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I've used a little bit of stickles on the fish and hooks, and used some Glosssy Accents on the worms and bobbers...well, I think they're called bobbers. (Can you tell I don't fish?)
Melissa is giving away the Fisher Moose image. Go to MelJen's Designs Challenge and Inspiration Blog to see how you can enter the drawing. And while you're there, leave Melissa a warm hug.
Melissa, you are in my thoughts and prayers today.
Thanks for stopping by.
