Let's Get Shabby....New Challenge #37

LGS has a new challenge and it's very "arty".
Be inspired any way you like by this gorgeous photo


I was definitely inspired by the colours on these old, well used paint brushes as well as by the splotches, blotches and splatters of paint. Make sure you explain how you were inspired on your blog post along with your creation. Check out how differently the other DT girls interpreted this challenge and get all the details on how to play along HERE.
