Treasure box Whale

I'm sure I mentioned this before, but in a Treasure Box kit, you get the diecut papers, the embellishments, and the background paper.  The penwork is usually just outlining, but when I saw this card, I realized I was going to have to draw in earnest.

Fortunately, when you have the shape defined by the diecut, and a really good photo of the finished product, drawing is not as hard as you might think.  It's also very satisfying to look at this card and realize just how much I really did to make it.  It's just so much more satisfying than stamping!

I'm just going to say that if you plan on doing penwork and using a crimping tool, you should do the penwork first.  It is really hard after the paper is crimped.
