I also added a trimmed, coloured with alcohol inks through a stencil, piece at the bottom left over the torn paper. A strip of pink paper was added on the left along with a trimmed image of a flowering plant.

Some random stamping in black Versafine ink was added next along with some white posca pen dots on the strip.
