IC1031 and TLC1071 - Dreams and Possibilities

Photo Details

Poster: nwilliams6

TL1071 - Sabrina has us whispering and shouting - using big and little words this week. I chose to do soft words and bolder words.

Also, Julie's inspiration site in the Inspiration Challenge inspired me (West Elm):

Here is my inspiration:

https://www.westelm.com/products/but...8542/?pkey=sWE

but I was also inspired by Korin Sutherland's Facebook Live video for this week in Creative Worship Stamps's VIP group on Facebook.

Base layer is faux wood, made by scoring the paper, then dragging ink pads. Second layer was done with brushes. Butterfly was watercolored.

Your butterfly is absolutely beautiful. The background sets it off perfectly, and the cheesecloth adds such a creative touch. Beautiful work!
