This week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge theme is architecture/building. The whole idea of building got me to thinking about what we do in this life and how it can benefit those who come after us. Whether it's building up people or talents or structures, we all have the potential to make things better than when we came. To that end, I made this canvas panel.
I drew and decorated the bigger houses, which I added to the panel that I'd painted and collaged on. I typed up the sentiment on a typewriter. I stamped the smaller houses onto the scene (AALL & Create's Our House stamp set) and splattered some Dina Wakley black gloss spray for a final touch.
