I really liked the "feel" of Helena's layout, so I also used some paper that was solid, but distressed (Basic Grey). I also liked the background stamp concept, so I used that and then added some doodles to the stamped image to match my photo. I also wanted to keep the "grungy" feel I was headed for, so I framed the area with a metal chain (I stitched it on using clear nylon string....that took a long time). I hung a couple embellishments from the chain to add interest.
This was my son allowing me to use his back as my canvas to practice my first attempt at a henna tattoo!
