Wow, been neglecting this blog for the past 5 months. Finally, get some time to resume crafting.

This Birgitta stamp was one of prize won in cardmaking challenges.  Love the cute girl. I pre-coloured the white doily with watercolour and let it air-dry overnight. I had stacks of these in various colour. As the image is a sitting girl, I need something to ground her to a seated-like scene, therefore I place her on a doily matted with a round die-cut cream cardstock.
