There is some organza fabric over the painted tissue paper in the collage above, which doesn't show up well in this photo...it adds a little sparkle.

Mixed media: fabric, acrylic, marker, watercolor, magazine clippings, hand-carved stamping, miscellaneous embellishments.

Saving the tiniest scraps of paper and cardstock that have been painted or stamped, gives me plenty of material for these collages.

Buttons and linen fabric added to the collage above.
