Sasayakki Glitter ..To a Special Dad

Hiya,I chose this image as it reminded me of my Dad ..When I was young both Mum and Dad were always taking pictures of us..Mostly Dad as he was camera happy lol..I think that is why I just hate having my picture taken now.I used Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card to colour this image ..Played around with a stencil for the clouds and it sort of worked ,..but I think will stick to watercolour or chalks for stencils next time ..cannot be perfect every time .I drew a wiggly line thingy around the image to frame it before mounting it onto black card..I have used First Edition Papers called Neroli throughout , A very nice pad for mens cards and some are lovely for the girls too.,so a good all rounder..I have matted them all onto black card..For this one  I decided on making a feature of the layers rather than fancy decoration..There is not a lot we can choose for men most would not appreciate flowers or bows,..Well the men I know anyway lol!.,So to finish the card I have used a selection of buttons in the colours that I have used in the image ,thus bringing them from the image into the body of the card,,Rather than one I have layered one on top of another which gives it a bit of depth too.. Thank you for popping by Take care :)xx
