I took this photo a few weeks back of my ds# 2,3,and 4. They all got mohawks that week to match their 19 year old big brother. They were so excited it was the first time Daddy had allowed the younger ones to do it.
I had a lot of fun making this lo, I really went to town with the splattering lol. I was inspired to do the gesso splattering by the work of Lost Coast Scrapper, she has amazing stuff! I hand stitched the stars, the one on the top left also has the inside stiched in silver in a pretty starburst kind of pattern.
Thank you for looking!!!
