One of my favourite portraits of my DS - it has been waiting for a perfect sketch) He looks so dreamy and wondering here, but in fact he's a doer and a mischief maker)
I'm making good use of my new punch - part of the reason I got this set was to try making medallions using the corner punch: take 1.5" square and punch all four corners - you get a small and pretty medallion - perfect for embellishing! Covered mine with 1" circles and the quotes. This works with any corner punch, give it a try!
Thanks for looking.
