I'm thinking of all of you and praying for your good health.
The name of this stamp is Forward and Through
I stamped it with Archival ink while visiting a friend a while back.
The background was colored by inking a small acrylic block, spritzing
and stamping onto the paper. I added some splatters in the same colors.
It's hard to see in this photo, but there are some score line behind the image
for a bit of added interest.
Thinking of those caring for the sick and keeping the lines of medical supplies,
food and essential needs available so we can be safe at home.
My thought also are with the teachers who are having to learn
to teach their students in an entirely new way.
Let us go forward and through these difficult times.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!
