Talk about feeling awkward. Boy, do I! Out of my comfort zone.
But stretching helps you grow, I know. Well, the Zetti-ish thing came together pretty easily on my own and the other major pieces too (thanks to
Nancy Baumiller and the Collage Play with Crowabout border pieces for this week's challenge) but I soo, sooo, sooo struggled with the background. I am just not ready for lettering. I cheated big time. I finally just printed over my rubber stamped background in the printer. I promise to work on lettering.

Getting out of your comfort zone is hard to do but you did a magnificent job! I love it!!! You need to check out another flickr/blog friend of mine. She does amazing work.

Holy cow (maybe holy fish?)... this is awesome. :) So much eye candy to look at here. Love the "marching" fish and the zetti fairy and well... all of it!

I LOOOOOOOOVE this! So powerful. Don't worry about your lettering ... you're stretching and playing and it's wonderful!
