Going Green…

“Botanica” is the theme chosen by Cathy this week at Sunday Postcard Art. Beautiful sample to inspire us, too! I had fun mixing my backgrounds, using alcohol inks, distress, inks, paint & gesso… and then stitching things together on top of all that!!

SPA-botanica

Main stamped image is an old fave of mine by Crafty Individuals and those on the bg are fun foam PM stamps out of my tin!!

Have a lovely Sunday… I’m off to work and to see some old friends! 🙂
