Good morning all.
Off to view a property this morning then it's onto a funeral of a second cousin who died last Sunday...he was only 49 but had spent over 20 years mourning the death of his wife and 6 month old son. I think today's project is appropriate.
Sharing today the second project I made for my DT application at STAMPlorations...a 6x6 canvas.

Sharing today the second project I made for my DT application at STAMPlorations...a 6x6 canvas.
Again all the stamps and stencils were from STAMPlorations. I started with a layer of gesso on my canvas then stencilled the confetti circles with texture paste on one side. I then attached the butterfly mask and used a brayer to add acrylic paint. I stamped the trendy butterfly stamps onto the mask using Archival inks. Rosette is a Memory Box die. Words were stamped onto tissue paper and added with gel medium.

That is absolutely stunning Carol! I can see that a lot of work went into creating this - it's beautiful, so wonderful and very sadly apt. Sorry to hear that about your cousin, life is too short and we must remember to enjoy every moment always.
