Wow, i like your style. I do collage like this but on canvases. Really liked this. Subscribing right now. That was such a nice package from Ukraine, i can’t believe someone would send photos like this 😮you did it justice!

[@teentsyvintage]

That’s so cool of you to say! Thanks for subscribing. ❤️

[@fshea1000]

Can you do that on a canvas with the same method? Love it!

[@teentsyvintage]

Sure! But I would apply a layer of gesso first.

I love this piece. I’m wondering where the cool circle die cut came from, is it recent? Thankyou.

[@teentsyvintage]

Thank you! The circle die is made by Paper Rose and I believe it came out in 2021. I got it from scrapbook.com 😊
