I can`t seem to let go of my spring-nature collages-and made one today-again-
this time using waxed french papers -again skeleton leave-and also a tea-bag -dryed after use..
The teabag is behind the bird ,and adds lovely texture-as does the piece of white barck-the little bird is resting on-together with a piece of old heavy lace.I also painted a mini wooden egg- and added some branches
This is the piece of barck-I found together with the skeleton leawes-and a few wild orchids- isen`t it a wonderful display from nature?
****************
This is a knittet nest, made of one very dear friend- Vicki --and I just have to tell you, she is giving this little wonderful nest away-You just have to click on her link-or go to my side bar to click on her link, there.
I love Vicki`s nests , and owe two myself-- they are wonderful little adventures and fairitales- and so beautifully made with the most gorgeus yarns. If you don`t know this lovely, dear lady,you should go visit her blog-also to have a chance to win - or to even order one from Vicki-as I know she takes a certain amount of orders every year.
The week-end is here,- and I dare almost say, spring is here,too-we had such wonderful weather today.
I hope you will all -see beauty in nature where you live-- does not matter if it is spring-or autumn- that arriwes in your very own place-every season are wonderful-- but I have to admit, that after a very long-and cold full of snow-winter, I`m very happy, to see the sun again.
I wish you all from my heart a lovely week-end-and sends you
love and hugs,
Dorthe

Hey Sweetie,
Your collage is beautiful, how did you do the bird? I love the pop of color against the bark & skeleton leaves. Is it transferred on fabric?
Just wonderful.
I own a Vicki nest too, they are a true work of art. I just stare at mine wondering just how she does it. And such a sweet soul too.
Have a great weekend.

Dear Dorthe,
I love your spring collage, the sweet bird, nest and eggs.
All so gorgeous and such a lovely idea putting the tea bag behind for some padding.
Have the happiest of weekends and enjoy the beautiful spring weather.

Hi Sweet Dorthe,
I just love your bird collage! I love that you used real nature things in it and the blue really makes it pop. How did you make the egg? Is that lace on the bird? It's look great.
I love the orchid, how pretty.
I have one of Vicki's nest too. It is so beautiful.
Thank you for sharing.

Your bird collage is just wonderful. All of the elements just bring it to life. I love the touch of blues with the natural colors of nature. B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.
Happy weekend my dear...
Good morning, dear Dorthe! That's another beautiful spring collage with lots of wonderful elements. Again I love that you have added a piece of lace to the bird image. The stamped little pillows are a great detail too. That white piece of bark is really pretty and so are the skelleton leaves.
Yesterday was a wonderful sunny day here too and it's supposed to stay that way for the whole next week with even a little bit higher temperatures.
Have a lovely weekend with lots of fun, sweetie!
Sending you mange kys og knus und ganz viele, allerliebste Grüße :-)

A beautiful spring collage and I love your friends knitted nest too. Penny
Collecting nature's treasures and using them to make something beautiful is immensely satisfying, isn't it? Once again, your collage turned out so well, it is gorgeous and the blue accents make it sparkle.
Vicki's nests are amazing, I have tried to win giveaways of hers before, but failed miserably. Ah well, perhaps this time, eh?
what a gorgeous spring collage! the colors, textures and composition are outstanding! I just adore that sweet little nest too! :) I hope you have a wonderful weekend dear Dorthe! :)
A lovely gentle spring collage.

You know exactly what to do to make these collages perfect Dorthe!!
Enjoy your Spring weather--it's trying very hard here to be Spring, but Winter doesn't want to leave just yet.
What a lovely nature inspired piece of art you have created. Spring seems sooo far away here in Aus, sigh. I am not a lover of winter.
Dear Dorothe ~ your spring collage is just beautiful! So soft and precious.
I am also a proud owner of one of Vicki's nest and am so happy to see she is having a giveaway. Thanks for sharing!
I received the tag I ordered from you and it is lovely!

Dorthe,
That is a gorgeous nature collage...and I will go visit your friend! I don't quite understand what you did with the tea bag but I am going back to see if I can enlarge it to get a better look. Love your bird/nature collages and your driftwood angels. Quite frankly, I just love all that you do.

Hello dear Dorthe
As I've meandered through a few blogs tonight, your name pops up everywhere!! It's just such a nice feeling to think we have this amazing network of like minded individuals all over the world!
It was so nice to read the comment from you this morning Dorthe.

Have a very happy Easter

Dorthe - Your collage is gorgeous! I just have to say - I don't know how you do it. My mind does not work that way - your inspirations from so many things - the textures - I am ALWAYS amazed when I see your collage collections and those of so many other talented bloggers that I enjoy visiting. Truly - this is a beautiful treasure - a tribute to nature and the beautiful spring.
Thank you my friend - truly - for sharing my nest on your fabulous and creative blog. It seems to look right at home there with your collections from nature. You are so very kind to me Dorthe - I appreciate your support of my creative endeavers - but most of all~~ I treasure the friendship that we have developed. Some things are priceless~~
Vicki
