Step 2.....Finally!

Working canvas with step two completed.

To do this, first I cut a piece of paper the same size as my working canvas. Then I made a sketch of the image I wanted as my focal point, in this case flowers. Then I cut out my image (the black is just the background I photographed my paper flowers on). I arranged my paper image on the canvas and traced around it with pencil. Then I went over the pencil with black permanent marker.

I have to confess that I couldn't quite leave step one alone. Before I started step two I added some rubber stamped images including letter stamps. I promise you won't have to wait very long for step three!
