The first tutorial in ArtistClass Spring, and a beautifull Gift.

When I saw that Lisa from Tarnished and Tattered was one of the artists that offered a
tutorial, in Mary`s Artist Class, I was sure I wanted to take part in this wonderfull event for the 3 time.
Lisa is a dear friend, and she makes the most beautifull, and special art,-I love her style, and have several pieces from her.
She made a Mothers day collage tutorial for this class,
and here is my interpretation.

My center piece is made with packing tape transfer, as I did not have the actual
materials.It is mounted on many different laces, that are glued to an old book cover.



Here is the mother mounted on an old crystal
and the beautifull image from a magazine, a painting from
a danish painter.
**********************************************************
I first met Sissie
when she won my first giveaway, and since then we have "talked" together
here in this wonderfull blogland.
Sissie is a so very dear, and sweet person, and a maker of the most beautifull and
romantic pillows.Her blog is filled with fantastic photoes from her beautifull home,and from her shop,filled with all the most lovely creations of hers.


Look what this sweet woman ,send me ,just like that-----
A little packet full of the most gorgeus old laces,rolled around a sweet tag.

Inside this organza bag,there was a little box filled to the brim with
small wonders of


this beauties,-Sissie ,I loved them when you showed them on
your blog, thanks so much dear.

and on top of that a card with a beautifull heavy old lace


I did not want to roll it off,but here a little glimpse of the card.

And here, all the lovely things. As you can see there was even a piece
of band with flowers too,
Dear Sissie, this is a wonderfull gift, and you are a very dear woman,-sweet friend,
thanks from my heart for such a precius gift.
******************************************************
Entering this blog land, I never immagined what kind of happines,love,and
dear,sweet weemen I would meet.
It is overwhelming, and a daily joy to be here.I can only hope, you feel, I`m returning
some of all this love, to all you fantastic friends, out there.
Love and hugs, Dorthe

Hi Dorthe,
I just love the piece you are showing us today. It's so very pretty with all the laces and the crystal with the art. Very pretty.
Isn't that Lisa the sweetest?

I am so glad that you received your package. You are so welcome my dear. If you are like me, I often just pile up my laces and look at them over and over again for inspiration.
Thanks for being such a dear, sweet friend. I'm so glad that I met you.

Dorthe, Your art class project is lovely, I think the packing tape transfer worked so well. (I enjoy using them in my work too)

Lisa said...

Hello my far away friend,
Oh, I just love your tattered collage. I saw the one Sandy at Quill Cottage made too. It's wonderful to see how different everyone style is, that is what makes us unique. I love your style Dorthe, I cherish each piece you've sent me. As far as Sissie goes, well, I just think she is the BEST, funniest, most clever person around. I don't miss her posts, that's for sure. How generous of her to send you such treasures. I know you'll put them to good use. Have a beautiful weekend. Lisa

Dorthe your collage is amazing and so beautiful. Nu håber jeg at denne kommentar går igennem, der er noget der driller, mon der er problemer med blogger, nå jeg prøver,hvor er den blevet skøn, og billedet, fantastisk godt overført, den teknik med klar tape må jeg prøve. Kære ven ha en rigtig god weekend.

Dorthe, I know what you mean about the sweet friends in blogland! 3 years ago I hardly knew what a blog was. I thought it was just something that TV commentators had and not something that could be so beautifully creative! The sharing we've discovered around the entire world is wonderful, isn't it!! We are spreading joy, inspiration and thoughtfulness that is so much needed!

I just love, love, love your beautiful creation! How ever did you do this with packing tape and not have it get all wrinkly?!

Blessings!
Diane

Dorthe, yes, we've had bears visit our garden too! And I don't like it at all! They're HUGE! One destroyed our bird feeders and also pulled the railing off our our back porch before it was an enclosed glass porch! We make certain that we put no food out for the birds when we know the bears are no longer hibernating!

Diane :-)
Hugs!
