I wanted to do a canvas for today's project. I had something totally different in mine when I started this but as I was looking through my stamps, I decided I wanted to do something entirely different. Funny how that happens!

ReplyDeleteThis will be such an inspiring piece in your studio! I was thinking how cool it would have been to have 3 on your wall to show the progression - the first without flower, the one with flowers and the one you plan to shade more!! Too late now but I think I may try that with something I do in the future!! Thank you!
