Friends

Hello and thanks for visiting today.
A few weeks ago I was lucky to win over on the Artistic Outpost blog, with my prize money I got the Paperboy stamps and this is the first inking of the beautiful young girls.  My background layer was made a while ago and was just waiting for something feminine but definitely vintage, there's embossing paste, paints and sprays with some random white script stamping that doesn't show at all in the picture.  The girls were stamped with Potting soil Archival and the background was 2nd generation stamping.  The flowers were made with the Tiny Tattered florals.
I am of course going to enter this at Artistic Outpost November challenge, well, it would be rude not to!
I am also entering this at :

That's it for now,

Gorgeous design and that central stamp is now on my wish list. Love the vintage feel and look of this. Have you ever seen the movie "Newsies"? This reminds me of it. Lovely good movie! Awesome sauce details and congrats on your goodies! ~Niki
