Stamping Sensations: Make it Colorful
The bg was created when there was leftover shimmer spray on the glass mat from the previous project. I mopped it up on the Text Vellum then stamped in black this beach scene. Colored the bird with pink shimmer spray straight out of the jar. My sand is sponged kraft ink pad and added black glossy accents to the top of the grass heads. Sentiment is a canvas sticker gifted by a friend. Piece is mounted on a silver mat on a black layer. These have a dry embossed frame that was done before adding focal panel.

Thanks Diana, I am never sure how far to cut focal images down. This frame required more than I am normally wanting to trim. So happy you like it.
