Sealed With a Kiss


Materials used: butterfly gift wrap, page from an old book, gesso, inked edges, stamped words, vintage collage image, velveteen ric-rac, ribbon slide, vintage silver glitter, sharpie pen, anodized wire, miniature clothespins. 
This will be available in my Etsy Shop.

I tried photographing today's piece in the garden, but couldn't quite find the right spot. But in my search, I found this amazing sight. My tree rose on the back deck is in this terracotta pot which has a vibrant green moss growing on it. It's completely peeling away from the surface with some beautiful effects. I love the colors - and I love it that this same color combo is in today's "Sealed With a Kiss" piece.
