Another oldie

Smon says stamp blog Wednesday challenge is

'Midsummer Blues'
and here is mine

When we moved 18 months or so ago I discovered a stash of cards made when I first started doing this many moons ago. This is the last one that I have to share.
As far as technique and products are concerned I can remember very little except that I used a hand operated air brush to make the speckles which I then outlined in felt tipped pen to make it look a bit neater.
