showcases your embossed copper flower.

Åh så mycket vackert, det var ett tag sedan jag var inne och kollade. Så många fina detaljer och foto, verkligen kul att titta in. Ha det gott och visst blir man glad när man bär smycken som man gjort eller hur??

I think you have the copper embossing down Dorthe because this piece is absolutely wonderful! I love the little bird sewn in the corner! And is that a penny?

Dorthe this piece is wonderful and I do see the copper flower. Did you actually sew through the copper sheet with your sewing machine? I love the quote you selected also. Happy creating...

Dear Dorthe,

I love your beautiful collage you have made with the copper foil and thread ~ you are so very talented and enjoy seeing what you are up to.
The answer to your question, no we did not actually buy a cake from the Pink cake shop because we had just eaten lunch at another place.

Have a lovely week
Hugs
Carolyn

Such a beautiful collage Dorthe ~ the colors are amazing and I love the little bird. The copper thread is a wonderful accent.

The quote you used is so very true. If only we all had a bit more patience!

Having a blessed day Dorthe!

My dear friend, you have done it again! What a beautiful piece, you have used your embossed copper foil and all those other fabulous pieces so well. And that saying is a very timely reminder to us all that there is more to life than rushing around like crazy, trying to do everything at once.

Rebecca said...

Hi Sweetie
I am surviving this cold...but the gray and snow are not helping any. Your collage is beautiful and looks like a fun project. You should link it up with my Studio Sunday party!
You said you are using copper thread as in metal? You must be hand stitching it. Beautiful!
Hope your weekend is lovely
Blessings
Rebecca

Dorthe,
This golden piece is so pretty. I love the quote on it too. It's always so fun visiting you and seeing your creations. I have not been to creative with my hands lately, but working on photography instead. Much less messy, but not the same. I'm always inspired by you, though, Dear!
Hugs,
Sherry
