Great idea. Much better than having another UFO staring you in the face. Well done.

That is so pretty. How did you do the FMQ? Did you have a pencil sketch on the material or what? Just love it.

The bare trees were an afterthought, but they needed no tracing. Then I added stars to the background. It really was just a whim that grew.
