Psychodelic Hippie Shroom

 
     When I saw this stamp in the February Kit of the Month, it reminded me of all the crazy painting we use to do on our jeans, back in the day.  People would not look at your face when you greeted each other, they would be checking out the art work on your jeans.  Okay, call me crazy!  That is when I grew up.....Yep, hippie days.  That is my story, and I am sticking to it!

     Today, for my Friends with Flair entry, I decided to use this fun stamp.  My background is made with my Fiber Scrap, walnut inks.  I stamped the image with Memento ink, when the paper was dry, and took Copic's to some of the areas.  I added pearl pen, Stickles, some vintage ric rac, and a button as  embellishments.  The sentiment and the floral border are also from the kit.

     I hear that there are warmer temps headed our way.  I still don't think this ice will all melt.  Happy Friday to one and all, and thanks for the visit.
