gingersnapcreations/jeweltones and gold

Background is a digital stamp I made from a free image from Vintage Catnip. I added another free image of the little girl. Butterflies are digital. I printed this 5"x7" image on high gloss photo paper. Then I added the german scrap crown.

Dress up! March/Pop art

I used to wear a dress called a "chemise". Basically , a simple sleeveless dress in different geometric patterns. Twiggy wore them in the 70's. Very chic!
