Hand-painted Christmas Card: Take 2

On some of the hand-painted Christmas cards I wrote about in a blog post a couple of weeks ago, I tried the loose crayon and watercolour technique I often use for larger paintings.  These crayoned cards, including Christmas in Canmore, were among the ‘unacceptable’ ones I mentioned at the time.

I think I’ve salvaged this one by using another technique of which I am quite fond – Photoshopping it within an inch of its life!

The background, should you be wondering, includes some of the peaks on the southern flank of Mt. Rundle.
