Collage......

Inspired by this picture found on the front of a damaged book of sheet music in a charity shop...dont know why but got to wondering who she was and what her life was like...I will never know!! Anyway... I used a piece of mountboard , sprayed with cosmic shimmer mists to fix the picture to, embellished with some lovely antique lace (given to me by a kind aunt!) buttons beads and butterflies, a faux porcelain flower and 2 wooden hearts, covered with some of the sheet music and clear embossed. Across the bottom is some lovely beaded trim. I wanted to use fabric for the edging but didn't have anything suitable so pleated this K&Co paper instead.
