Honestly, this one scared me. I pondered this all through my work day and even when I finally sat down at my stamping table didn't have a clear vision. I had a couple of false starts until my fingers took over. I have cellophane bags of shapes, colored images, borders, etc. So, I just started and this is the end result. Not too sure about it, but I did complete it so here is it in all its glory, waiting for your comments.
I wanted a white base, stamped with Gratuitous Graffitti stamped in black. Cosmo Cricket DP spices up the background. The main image was painted probably over a year ago, there's a black oval behind the image embellished with glittery flowers, knotted ribbon, a chipboard swirl with glittery butterfly.
Thanks for viewing and commenting.
