        @Ruth-Tripp Thanks Ruth! I usually do my thumbnails with pencil and paper and then scan them into Photoshop for the rest. I haven't used Procreate, but it looks like a lot of fun. I have been learning how to create my own brushes in Ps and used a few from Lee White's brush class to get the lighting effect I wanted. Then it was just a matter of playing with layer modes and such! Thanks again!

                  This was a fun and challenging prompt.
                  I decided to go for a cutout kind of style. Let me knonw what you guys think. 🙂

                    @Eric-Droke This is very original.
                    How did you do it? What did you use?

                      @cathy-spee Very unique! I really like the look of this. It makes me think of a those old (still around?) sticker books. Good job!

                            @sufitch thank you! Your piece is gorgeous too! Some parts are so deliciously textured, I feel like I can feel the pencil in my hand and other portions look maybe digital(?) How do you get that affect?

                              @Ruth-Tripp thank you for the compliment! I'm actually really old school. My piece is all hand done with just touch ups done in photoshop. Yours looks digital, but still has a great hand drawn feel to it. I love the concept too. Well done!

                                          Here is my entry 🙂
                                          once with bleed and once without. Hope you like it, I tried out something new (for me).
