So That's Why They Call it the Blues

This card is a little bit of serendipity.  I had made another card with this image and used the cut out image as a mask, but afterwards it looked so pretty I just had to use it somehow.  I like the ombre effect too.  So yes, it's paper pieced.

Stunning "blue" card. I love the background you created to go with the image of the person with an umbrella. Thanks for joining us at a2z Scrapbooking.
