30 I hope...

Testimony reads" I hope you remember I am your true friend for always and forever. I hope you never forget to stop and smell the flowers, to pay attention to the little things to enjoy yourself, to count on me"
I was inspired by the OUAS sketch and forgot to say there is metal in the form of staples and rims in the tags!
Here's the evidence

childlike elements the little rocking horse, part of hers and mine childhood, she got to use my own

Sprinkles, in the form of glitter scattered around the page

you can also see some textural images there of the gesso background

4 patterns, polka dots, stripes, flowers and gingham

journaling on the swirls

Thanks all for your lovely comments, had fun doing this one. The wooden horse is part of a veneer wood collection from Bo Peep's by Crate Paper it is brand new from their mid release and I have been enjoying using them. You will see more pretty soon I promise. The rose on it is by Prima. The background work on an off white old paper by Prima (it resembled the door on the photo) was done with a paper I punched using the country tiles punch by Martha Stewart and then I applied the gesso. While it was wet I sprinled the coarse glitter. The dripings of my evidence were done using Maya Road chocolate mist, Tattered Angels pink and green.
