Dream Canvas


This is my first try at decorating a blank canvas I started it ages ago but only finished it yesterday. I had to wait for the butterflies to dry! The background effect is made using dabbers. I then stamped the "dare to dream ". The butterflies are stamped then coloured with watercolour pencils and coated with glossy accents. I finished the whole thing off with a few bindis. I'm glad I got round to finishing it will have to find somewhere to put it now!
