Here's a little something I made using the image "Mother and Baby" from the Grunge Collages set.  The color is added by stippling on ink from a Kaleidacolor pad.


I hope you will apply to the Team!    We really do have lots of fun and learn so much from each other.   Have a great day!
Karen

  4. This is such a cool stamp, Karen. I love the colors you applied to it; makes it seem like the mother and child are looking out into the evening sky.
