White Butterflies In the Garden of Grunge

Some nonsense stuff again. I love the book I am cutting right now, it has a lot of fun sentences.

Valkoiset perhoset tummanpuhuvassa puutarhassa - ja ne juttelevat ihan hassuja! Leikkelen parhaillaan hauskaa kirjaa ja löydän siitä jatkuvasti inspiroivia lauseita.

In the Frame I - III
 You can make up your own story of what happened!

"Mr Hogland has some fantastic plans."
 

"Enough!, Sonia sighed."

 "Raynolds hurried towards the garden."

Background is a brown paper bag, heavily crumbled and then painted with red acrylic. After it had dried I stamped black distressed texture and black flowers, and lightly smeared with diluted gesso to pick up the ridges in the crumbled paper, thus adding some highlights and gaining depth.

This was inspired by a few challenges into which I'd like to enter:
TioT: In the Frame
P*skis: Use 3 different dies
Anything but a Card: Summer heats up / anything goes
That Craft Place: Mixed Media / anything goes
