I decided to post this real quick before I added the other 37 things that are rattling around in my head. This is the most CAS card I have ever made. I was experimenting with acrylic paints and white gesso, and made a bg I liked. I used my finger instead of a brush for all the painting. Then I used some round lids and purple acrylic paint for the circles. I added some gesso inside the circles and then colored in with Gelatoes and smeared with my finger. I stamped the flowers and patterns, highlighted with white gel pen, and then used all my will
Power to stop. TFL, Francie

You are one of the most amazing stampers on SCS, Francie! No one but you would have thought to do something like this! Your finger painting came out wonderful and so beautifully blended. I love that you always make happy cards and this one is no exception!

OMGosh, I want YOUR bandanna! What a fun, colorful, beautiful design!! I LOVE what you do my friend! I'm glad you stopped there to take a photo and can't wait to see what else you do with it!! You do magic with those little fingers of yours! If I tried painting with my fingers it would look like (you know what!). Sometimes I smudge with my fingers but hey, my OCD won't allow finger painting, hahaha!
I LOVE your card! It is funny how we always love what we can't do!

What a fabulous background you created, Francie. All that paint and gesso and Gelatos looks so arty and beautiful. And then I love the combination of the pink plaid and black...it looks just great.
