We are away on a break at the beach at the moment and this stamp grabbed me as soon as I saw it in a local Book & Stamping Shop, it took me straight back to my childhood, when we would go to the Fair and I would come home with a Kewpie doll on a stick, it would have a tutu and a lot of glitter - a luxury for sure when I grew up....so I had to have the stamp.
I made the faux lace border with a stamp I had, it is amazing what you can do when your supplies are limited...makes you find a way!!!
Thanks for looking, I love it when you stop in and especially like to read your comments!!!
