Mixed Media on 6x6 canvas with Totally Tracy stamps

I snagged 2 sets of Totally Tracy stamps--Dream and Create--from a FB sale site and since I had slopped ink and liquid acrylics on these canvas' I figured they would be a great background to use those new flower and word stamps and make some mixed media art.

Here is Dream...


Did you catch how I was laughing on the first one above?

Couple of leaves finish off this canvas.

Here is the Create canvas...

This flower kind of exploded and then a dream jumped into it.

I took the word "believe" and made it into "be" and "live" of course I have an "e" floating around for some future project :)

A few polka dots.
