"Express Yourself"

Good Afternoon To All! It is Monday, and I am ready for the week! I took some time this weekend to spend with my fiance! We went bumming and just enjoyed each other and the weather. (It was cold, but the sun was shining!) And did a little bit of "Retail Therapy"!

Today I have a very different type of creation to share with you! This wonderful image is by The Stamping Boutique called 20/40! I decided to put myself out there and dig deep down inside myself with this image. It was a bit difficult until I started coloring it, then it just came naturally! Everyone wears a mask and with this image I took my mask off. I hope that I have not scared or offended anyone, that is not my intention! I would love to hear your thoughts on this creation!
