"Mini Echinacea on the Rocks #1" Bead Embellished ACEO- 2.5x3.5"

This is the second of my "On the Rocks" series of ACEO art cards. This little piece includes a photo of orange and yellow Echinacia flowers printed onto silk. The right side is a piece of my mud and rocks fabric manipulated with stitched tucks and couched yarns, with beads and a gemstone chip added. There is also a tiny copper tone butterfly resting on the rocks. The flower centers are accented with beads. The edges are bound with a multicolored yarn.

My Art cards are tiny art quilts made with 3 layers- poly batting is used between the top and backing fabric. The back side is signed and dated with the name of the piece.

This is another One-Of-A-Kind piece that can never be reproduced. It would make a great addition to a nature lover's collection.
