TGIF - Hats



The theme of the TGIF challenge this week is hats and these two wee ones have decided to be festive and to wear Santa hats. The images are from Retro Cafe Art Gallery and the background is created using layers of gesso, pages from the telephone book and gel medium with stamping mixed in for good measure.
