Birdies

Birds are so in right now. Who knew? I've got a few bird related collages on Etsy at the moment. Here is my latest picture frame. Here I've used a light blue background and accents of orange. I used some letter stamps to add the word "Sweet" above the area for the picture. The exclamation point stamp helped form the "paths" for the butterflies. There are some French ephemera stickers, too. I like French, I studied it in high school, so it's my go-to foreign language. Although I don't remember a lot of the language now. C'est la vie.

New Collage

I made this collage last night. Usually I make collage boxes, while this is more like a card with stuff on it. Uh, so I guess it's like regular art. (?) Anyway, it's a 4" x 6" piece of mat board covered with brown paper. The collage is made of various stickers and cut out butterflies. The little scene is from a book of geisha/japanese themed stickers. The Netherlands stamp is real. On the lower portion ther are five silk-covered buttons which I sniped off a throw blanket my friend Kasha made for me. Actually I snipped off all the buttons...not just the five. Er, back to topic. I really like this new collage! I think I will make more. I haven't listed this on Etsy, but it's on Lov.li right now. Click the Lov.li badge on the left if you're interested.
