Last month we did an altered domino swap on
UK STampers . I've only just got into using Alcohol Inks (Tim Holtz IS a god...) so I thought I'd join in.

I should point out that the frame is only about 4" x 2" approximately - weeny.
Images used were by Paperartsy and Judikins...

A couple of fab sets there Diane and I just love that canvas
