Step inside The Lab if you dare… When I first saw the weird science (CMS379) stamps, I immediately thought of Dr Frankenstein and imagined what a chalk board in his lab would look like… I altered an idea-ology collage frame some months ago but wasn’t…

Adding a layer of vintage distress collage medium and once dry, rubbing…
