Theme is Spots and/or stripes, and our sponsor is Sheepski. Please check out Andrea's blog for image details as she has shut down her etsy store.
I usually think laterally, and what better animal for a stripes challenge. "Skunk" is from Sheepski Designs. Colouring a black and white image was a challenge, but I think I got there.
The background is a patterned paper I have on my computer, I just took away the colours. The quote I found on the internet, I'm thinking Abraham Lincoln was very astute and I can think of a couple of people his would describe. lol.
