I was inspired by an old European picture of an old wall with lattice and flowers and vines on it.

The background was created using a pressed paper technique and alcohol to give it an inconsistent, aged and vintage look. I also stenciled a lot on tissue paper which is quickly becoming one of my favorite things to do.

This quote is one of my favorites and I share in the video how I have some not so great chapters in my story and the great thing is that we get to edit and rewrite the journey as many times as we need to.

Our stories are always evolving, moving and taking new directions… and we get to choose how the story with go.

Oh and just in case you just love this piece to pieces… you can get the original HERE and the print HERE
