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.

Natures Spirit

This piece is part painting, part stamping and lots of bit of other stuff - so guess it qualifies as a collage! It is just something I had in my head for ages so decided to to "download" it, lol !!

The stamps are from the fabulous PaperArtsy range.

Sam, I have been in a crafting desert for a while so have had very little to blog!! Thanks for your comment , hope you all had a great xmas and new year too. xx

Frame - Lots to Do weekly challenge

This weeks challenge was to frame something. I have made a little collage (2"x 2 1/4") set behind a piece of thick perspex, "framed" it with gold utee & added the hanger & ribbon.
