My Mom and I do the Twelve Days of Christmas with each other each year. This year she has gotten into stamping with me. I bought this retired set for her and wanted to make something from it to give her with it. So this is what I came up with. I really wanted to put googly eyes on the frog and the dragon fly and pearls on the flowers and toadstool but I knew it was not practical on a bookmark. Not good for the book, you know. So I refrained but it was really hard. I colored in the stamped images with markers. Then I used an aqua painter and bashful blue for the sky. Then I sponged the edges. New for me, I'm trying new things as I get inspiration from all of you. TFL
