SPA is celebrating the end of their first year and picked HAPPY BIRTHDAY as this week’s theme…… that calls for some cake…let’s celebrate
The postcard size format, 6 x 4 inches, certainly is a nice size to play with. I started with a junk photograph, added gesso, inks and dry brushed gesso again, distressing the surface by scratching it. The sun face is from Paper Whimsy, the cake is from Flickr
Congratulations and thanks go out to Donna and Mandy for a year full of exciting challenges. It takes a lot of energy and time to keep a challenge blog going. I can hardly believe it’s been a year since I first played along. Here’s to more fun and inspiring challenges to come!
