Well, I love this challenge. :) And I knew exactly which cover I wanted to use right away lol~~ Most of you probably knew. XD Or not. I don't know. But it's from one of my favorite books. You can read me review of the series HERE. [/self-advertisement] Haha. Seregil!!! <3 I used this cover also for the banner in my main world for a while...a couple months ago.

Here is the original image I used, which is the cover for Shadows Return by Lynn Flewelling, which is the 4th book. That hunky guy there is Seregil. <3 So yeah, I obviously darkened things...and warmed things...and added texture. I was rather indecisive on what to do with it, but this is how it ended up. XD Maybe a bit took dark, but ehhh. I like it. <3 And the text wasn't too bad lol~ I realize I made a "determination" card last year! That was for my precious hockey team, the Flyers, hehe. But here is another one...and it's quite different. So yeah. XD

Enjoy~

Edit: more contrast...hmm...the original image's quality wasn't THE best, and now I have a feeling it's affected the card's quality. :/ I'm trying to improve it more...though this is probably just me and my nitpicky ways lol.
