I stamped the Fritillary onto a roughly gessoed page and added Distress spray inks in Chipped Sapphire and Victorian Velvet and moved them round with a damp tissue, some stencilling in Faded Jeans and Vic Velvet along with some background stamping with Watering Can Archival, before adding some hand drawn doodling. The sentiment is a favourite from PaperArtsy.
Thanks for calling in,
