Time to Reveal the Mystery!

It's the 18th and that means our Mystery image can be revealed. The Mystery image sent out to all the Mysterious Gals over on SCS that is. Darlene was hostess this rounds and what an image she sent us! Wow! oh Wow! I was soooooo intimidated by it. I'm not much of a "colorer", so when I saw all the detail of this image I was a little scared.
Here's what I came up with...

I colored my scene like it was the beginning of Fall. The cats, whom my daughter named Peanut and Fred had to have a little detail added. They just blended in too much for me. so they both got spots. I also tried to give the frame a little wood grain effect with markers. The dp I added comes for the Fall We are Memory Makers pack. Then I added some twine and sewed on a button for the embellishments.
I can't wait to see what the other girls came up with!
Until next time...
Blessings...

Peanut and Fred, I love it!!!

Your idea to hand treat the frame was great. It turned out looking really good.

I also like how you used the twine with the button.

Great job!
