frogs

This was an experiment to see if I could use boldly patterned scrapbook paper as background for a quick scene.  The only stamp used is the stamp of the frogs.  Colored with Radiant Pearls to match the shiny embossed printed paper.

KITTENS!

These little girls remind me of my mother and her sister at that age.  My mom, Marjorie, had beautiful red hair, and her sister Helen had dark straight hair worn in the style shown.

Splash of the Titan

The title is a play on words:  "Splash" because of the woman dipping her toe in the water, and "Titan" because her character in the stamping catalog is Phoebe, one of the Titans.  And of course, this refers to the movie "Clash of the Titans", a favorite in our house.  This scene was a challenge to myself to see if I could use some of my many Greek stamps in a scene.
