I read about this technique to use up scraps of paper and cloth and bits of recycled ephemera. I decided to jump in head first to really get my hands dirty in this fascinating genre called mixed media collage. Wow! I think I've opened a sort of Pandora's Box! I am completely addicted. In fact, just two days after finishing my "Valentines", I started a whole new series with even more recycled materials and I love it! In fact, I've framed 7 of them and my local bank hung them in their lobby. I believe it is time to enter the world of Etsy.
