I can change my mind - can't I?

Alice updated

ATC of funky frog
Yesterday I posted one of my Life Book 2013 (here) pages of Alice stretched and wondering.  Part of the suggestion for this was to stamp, stencil the background, which I didn't do.  This morning I thought - oh Alice you need something.  So I added a little stenciling and some subtle stamping.  She seems more complete and interesting.  My frog ATC is painted using a funky Christmas ornament as a model.  I want to make a larger one - but thought I would practice on an ATC.  She needs some work - and I messed up a bit (hence the bit of paint and glitter glue around her), but a good practice.

I am posting both of these to Paint Party Friday which is hosted by the fabulous Kristin and Eva!  Visit them to see all the awesome artists who join on Fridays.  Better yet - join up yourself - you will make new friends and get lots of encouragement!  Thanks for stopping by today - I love your comments - so let me know what you think!  Have a blessed day.
