My no.2 collage made in KC`s workshop

This collage is made from a lot of vintage material,-cottons, laces,from
tablerunners,and pillowcases, and partygowns, -the pearls used on top,
and on the right side are all new. I found the beautifull immage on Shabby
chic papirskatter , and mounted it all, on very old and stiff heavy cotton.

The coming week, my daughter,son in law and two grandchildren, will be her for summer
hollyday, and I`m so looking forward to se them,- I think,I will not have time, to sit here enjoying visiting you all much, while they are here, so I wish you all -bloggers, and other visitors a great and lovely week. See you soon.

and a very sweet little fairy.
