On A Spring Roll `Ha Ha`

Here we go I have had a go at using Stampscape Stamps these are used on ink blended backgrounds using ink dusters onto glossy paper I used photo glossy paper and it has worked a treat. Then stamped with Stampscape Stamps for details, I am going to have another go at this enjoyed doing it. The finished picture looks lovely framed.
