Happy Birthday, Carolyn

I was traveling over the holidays and missed my friend, Carolyn's birthday. It's a few days after Christmas. I wanted to send her a part of me, so I created this 5x7 mixed media piece.

The techniques I used follow a lot of what I learned in Christy Tomlinson's SHE ART class, which I took last summer. In the end I liked it so much I nearly didn't send it to her (wink).

This is the birthday card I sent along. I think the image is a Lost Coast stamp. I love, love, LOVE the sentiment. It totally cracks me up!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAROLYN!!
