I started by making the faux wood frame, I first used water color to make the base then dry embossed the frame and covered with ganache and tea and distress walnut. then I made the background for the angel, I made a water color wash with salted sea on an acrylic bloc sprayed water and applied paper, let it dry and used water colors to make splatters with an aqua brush, once dry I stamped the angel a stamp I bought in Italy during my cruise, I'm sorry but no names on the stamps
to embellish the frame I've added some flowers and made a bow with coton lace, and added some golden dots in the frame, layered this onto glossy blue base

I like your new little Italian cherub - and you did a fabulous job on your faux wood grain frame. The paper roses and lace embellishments work well on this.
