High Hopes - On Guard Oberto
Good afternoon,here is the High Hopes card I promised in the last post.I really need to use these High Hopes images more often,they are so much fun to colour and they make fantastic cards.I first saw High Hopes images on Ila's blog and just wanted to get some there and then,this was one of the images I had seen Ila make a card with and here it is,I love the pirate theme.Ila is one talented lady and her colouring is brilliant,the crosses on the bandana was Ila's idea as was some of the shading spots.I have so many images,not just of High Hopes but other brands that haven't been inked yet,I am now determined to use them.Thankyou for all of your wonderful comments,it does make my day and some even give me a laugh. To those of you that don't comment I still thankyou for stopping by and having a look,I hope you enjoy what you see.
