The Blacksmith Shop II

 This image is by Morgan Firzsimons.  I was unable to find it in her current shop.  Here is a link to her shop:  Creative Art & Design.  I was unable to do this in markers.  I have been having a lot of problems with my vision lately and this is very detailed.  I colored it with Prismacolor pencils and soft pastels.  I colored it on a full size page, then scanned it and reduced the size to fit on a card.   I was completely running out of male birthday cards and needed to make some.  This and the other two I made recently should keep me covered until January.  I just hope the relatives don't happen to show each other the card that I made them.  That would be interesting!

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Morgan's Art World - Anything Goes

2 Crafty Critter Crazies - Anything Goes with a Critter

Daisy Chain Challenges - Boys/Men

Do All Kreatives - Vintage for Men

Colour Crazy Challenge - Anything Coloring Goes

Here are the other three I completed with this design.
