Seing Tracie Lyn Huskamp`s beautifull book : Nature inspired http://thereddoor-studio.blogspot.com/
I was very inspired to make some collages with lovely birds ,too-
Not to paint them myself-but the use of birds and lace looks so very beautifull,together, I think.
There is steady paper inside, and cloth in the backside,too.
A little rusted pieces holds the cord for hanging.
Also I made those little hangers, with roses from the sheets I bought last week.
The metal frames , hold holy pictures, and are some I bought for my shop ,some years ago.
The other day I found some left, and desited to alter them, and this is the results.
There migt come some in my Etsy
I think,they are quit beautiful
This last one is a present to a very sweet and dear friend, whom I happen to know- loves birds
and love watching them.It is not send yet, as there have to be a little bit more in the package :)
I hope you are all happy and cosy in your doings, this saturday-
And wishes you all, dear friends- and followers a wonderfull week-end.
Love and hugs,
Dorthe
I`m linking this to Rebecca`s sunday studiotour as nature inspires me so very much-XXXOOO

Those are very beautiful! Dorthe, you always seem like such a bright and happy person and I always get such a lift reading your blog. Hugs!
My dear Dorthe, I have MISSED you!! And your beautiful creations. I love those altered metal frames - and the bird theme. We have two bird pairs nesting in our front yard and I could sit all day and watch them coming and going... I hope you are doing well and that spring is coming to Bornholm... Much love, Silke
How lovely, Dorthe, are your collages and hangers! I love the bird collage with the layers of lace. I feed the birds here all fall and winter, and love to watch their antics as they flit from tree to tree and dive-bomb each other to get the best seeds!
Have a wonderful weekend.
Dorthe- I've just been looking at Traci's Nature Inspired book, too- its full of fun ideas- I almost want to try and paint a bird.
Love your bird fabric collages- you do have a talent with lace!
...dear Dorthe ~ when it comes to mixed media with pretty vintage laces, you are a shinning star:)
Such pretties you always create!

Deine Vogel Collage ist ein Traum, sweetie! Ganz toll finde ich unter anderem, dass Du den Vogel auch mit Spitze verziert hast. Ein wunderschönes Kunstwerk!
Die Metallrahmen passen sehr gut zu Deinen entzückenden Collagen. Es war eine prima Idee, sie dafür zu verwenden.
Ich wünsche Dir einen schönen Sonntag und hoffe, bei Euch ist das Frühlingswetter auch angekommen.
Viele, allerliebste Grüße und mange kys og knus :-)
Julia
PS: Ich hatte heute morgen schon wieder Dein Buch in den Händen und habe jede Seite gestreichelt :-).
Dorthe, Wow! This is a beauty! So are the little famed pieces. I also have that book. Holly gave it to me for Christmas one year and I've always loved the way she uses lace on the birds' bodies. Your version is exquisite!
Have a wonderful Sunday afternoon!
Hugs and love, Diane
Such a lovely and delicate bird collage! And, the tiny frames are the perfectly altered.
Dorthe, your bird collage and small hangers are indeed beautiful! Love the details you added and the images you used.
Hugs,
Robin
So very beautiful, Dorthe

Have a wonderful Sunday and thank you Dorthe for linking up with me this Sunday.\

this is a piece with a lot of creativity dorthe and beautiful layers.

Dorthe,
Oh sweetie, this is so cool. Creative minds think alike, huh? I did not see this before I did my post. I love Traci's book so much I took it along with the LK book camping with me & was so inspired there in the woods. Your collage is absolutly beautiful. I love the laces you used and the bird. It is so clearly you! Have a great day my friend.
Lisa
Absolutely beautiful Dorthe ~ the bird piece is so wonderful and your little hanging pieces are so pretty. I think the last is my favorite ~ the little egg is such a perfect touch.
Oh Dorthe...beautiful as always. I've been away for a while...sorry. I'm back now and so happy to see you! Big hugs...
Dearest sweetheart Dorthe, I love the gorgeous collage you made dear one! I agree, birds and lace look so beautiful together! I am certain if we put little scraps of lace out in the garden the birdies would use them to line their sweet nests! Your collages are so incredible! I love the one you gave to me and treasure it so much as I treasure your friendship sweetie! I love the bird and egg image and all the laces, buttons and fabrics you used to make such an amazing layered and textured piece of art! YOU are so inspiring! The little hangers you made are equally beautiful! The metal frames, images, laces, buttons are all so sweet and charming and yes, very beautiful sweetheart! You are such a gifted artist my dear friend! I love the gorgeous little metal hanger you made with the bird and the laces with the little hanging egg and heart! It is so sweet and your dear friend will love it! Thank you for sharing all of your beautiful creations dear heart! I always enjoy visiting your beautiful blog, seeing beautiful you and all of your beautiful creations! I hope you are having a good week! I am sending you all my love, hugs and kisses to my sweetheart friend Dorthe! Love you dearly! Paula xoxoxo

Dorthe, you do such fabulous work! I love the way you nested the egg behind the lace. Your designs are just exquisite. You have such a flair for combining the romantic and the rustic. Beautiful work! Terri
Your artwork is just thrilling to me Dorthe. I love how beautifully you put things together. You are such an inspiration in my own creating of my collages. I just adore this white crochet one here.
