I just happened to have my new Finnabair stamps to hand so grabbed the fabulous lady and was about to stamp her bottom right but last minute - on a whim stamped her top left - now what? Looked and then picked up a stray background stamp by Kaisercraft (I had put way all the other stamps I had been using this clear one had escaped!) and stamped a little bit of it under the image - still wasn't sure, just wanted to take off the harsh edge and suddenly there was a tall lady wearing a long dress!!

I call these "Flopportunities," because they start out as a flop, then turn into a MAGICAL opportunity. Gotta LOVE this one, Chris!
Gorgeous and creative. You have a lovely blog, and are very talented.
