Mixed-Media Collages

Hello Everyone,
Today I'm sharing two mixed-media art collages I made this week. I've always loved this vintage photo of my Grandmother, so I decided to create a collage around it (using a copy of the photo, of course.) I've added vintage buttons and vintage lace, glittery pink seam binding, paper flowers and scrapbooking embellishments.

My grandmother was born in 1904, and I believe my Mom once told me she was 16 in this photo, so it was taken around 1920. Wasn't she beautiful?

This is my "Dream of Paris" collage. The Paris scrapbooking page is glued to a piece of chipboard. I then added bits of cheesecloth, vintage buttons, and a key. The Paris-Eiffel Tower torso tag came in a shabby chic art kit that I purchased from Cindy Adkins' Whimsical Musings Etsy Shop, which can be found by clicking HERE. The whole collage is lightly "frosted" with copper-colored glass glitter.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend! I'm linking this to:

I Won!!

Hello Everyone,
Isn't this an adorable snowman ornament? I won it from Myric of Petites Passions! How lucky am I? With the mild winter we've had so far, this might be the only snowman I'll see this winter, too!  He really is so cute and makes me smile. Thank you so much, Myric!!

Myric is a writer and a very gifted artist. This beautiful Seaside Tag is just one of her creations:
