Something Saturday - Colourful Kaleidoscope

Hi There Creators

I used the reverse sides of the overlays as a mask, and they do turn out kind of pretty themselves! got to add bling!   If you're careful with them you can turn them back over and use them as intended too

I hope this inspires you that you can do more with a kit than it's meant for😉

God Bless love
