Emerald has been prized

E is for Emerald
Here's my diamond shaped 5" x 5" Creative Underground
Funky Fold-Up Alphabetica swap page:
E is for Emerald.
(The daisy paper is just a pretty background for this blogspot entry.)
How'd I make the page?
Well, I used a vintage photo taken in Chicago - just about my favorite
American city - tinted green in Photoshop for the background.
Printed out & hand-colored (with colored pencils) the woman - she's
from a swell vintage postcard in my collection. Printed out my little
commentary on a piece of vintage ledger paper - thanks, Jaylene!
Attached those two elements to the background, added a bit of emerald
colored metallic rub-on to the edge of the torn ledger paper, and rubbed
on some Basic Grey swirlies, butterflies, flores & little birds.
Almost colorful, a bit mysterious & just my style.
