Compendium of Curiosities Challenge #3

For this week's Compendium of Curiosities challenge we were to utilize alcohol ink monoprinting. This technique created a nice blended background, and I overstamped it with an Oxford Impressions stamp from the Bird's Nest set then mounted it over a vintage french dictionary scrap and created a frame with a Hampton Art border stamp.

Penny, this is FABULOUS, girlfriend! Love the monoprint colors, love the bird, and love that cool frame you created with the border stamp! You rocked it, again!

Thanks for playing along with Challenge 3! And, congratulations on your Muse gig at Gingersnaps this month, too!

Hugs,
Linda

Oh this is beautiful. Don't have that OI set but you have certainly got me thinking, should I add to the Wish List :) Lynne
