the next give away


sorry that i made the last give away decision so quickly, but it was a no brainer! mel and i "met" on flickr, and now we are friends on facebook, twitter, and our blogs, and i think stumbleupon, too. so despite that we are hundreds of miles apart, i count mel as a good friend. PLUS -- mel so generously donated to my favorite charity for my birthday, it just seemed like a natural fit!

so, mel, you are out of the running on this one, friend:)

this square collage is four inches per side. i used handmade paper, some very old and delicate hand blocked wallpaper, tissue, found papers, and part of a vintage sewing pattern.

it is not matted. i've found some 8 x 8 inch frames with mats at target that look great with these collages if you are interested in framing it.
