Paint Party Friday - Baili's Lamp


Welcome to Paint Party Friday! Baili posted a touching story of her lamp and how much it means to her. It inspired me to paint it for you today. It's done on textured cardstock (6" x 6") in permanent marker, outlined with a black PITT artist pen.

I received these beautiful package from Gillena which included some pretty ATCs, in a recent swap we did.  Thanks Gillena, it was so fun to receive your package!
