Hand stamped: another Hands AB spread

Using the same hand template as the one for the sewn hand spread I made yesterday, I first glued a bunch of cancelled postage stamps onto card stock after I removed them from their envelopes and dried them. Then I turned them over and drew the hands from the back. Not knowing where the hand templates were going to land on the stamps was as much fun as creating the pieces. I really had fun with this spread, even though it took a lot more time than I expected.

LVE the pun and the ART of the spread. Looks like it was fun.
