Poinsettia Grunge


You know that thing where you start a card with an idea in your head but next thing you know it heads in a totally different direction.  Truth.

I grabbed the wrong brush for the background so it went from my envisioned salvaged patina to cobalt blue. Behold:  my Dr. Who inspired Christmas card. LOL.


I'm entering this in Stencil Fun December 2023, Beautiful Blossoms #12 Anything Goes with Optional Holiday Mood Board, The Dream Factory #12 Cobalt Blue.
