The "Sunflower" image is totally digitally done, those rich colors were done (using the fill command) in Paint Shop Pro and then I used crystal glaze and a Sakura glitter pen on it to enhance the richness. The rest of the card was done traditionally. I love the way this turned out!! There were a couple of adjustment layers added before the final result; the longer I played the more amazed I became! When it reach this point I decided enough was enough and I needed to stop tweaking and accept it "just like this". I am not a digital coloring junkie! LOL

Beautiful card, that sunflower is just stunning! Thanks for playing with us in the Tea Room!
Donna, this card ROCKS! I thought the sunflower was amazing and then I read that you did it digitally and I am totally floored! I do some digital fill on images, but I'm baffled on how you got the petals to be more than one color. Anyway, the card is really lovely - nice and vintage looking.
Congrats on making the priscillastyles DT!
Hugs,
Linda
Oh my gosh! This so beautiful!!! Love the image and the colours Hugs Tina xx

Donna, your creation is superb! Love what you have done with this image... it is beyond fabulous!
Donna I am amazed - this is one dramatic card!! Just awesome - what more can i say.
Donna this is an education in design and composition! I am intrigued that you were able to color this on the computer. I need to get some good software so that I can do that as I love digital images. This is so exquisite and so fascinating. You are so talented and gifted in your craft. Happy to have you with us at PSDT. Great job with the sketch this week. Thank you so much for playing along with the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.
