Ever feel like you are flying off in all directions at once? Thats the feeling I tried to portray in this

6 1/4" x 6 1/2" mixed media collage.



It features textures from handmade paper and torn scrapbooking paper. I hand stamped and embossed images from rubber stamps, and cut the leafy branch from an eraser then printed it. There is also an edge piece from a leather hide Ive had for many years.



Shades of brown and turquoise and dark green are sparked by flashes of gold in the handmade paper, and scraps with Pearlesence brushed over it.



This piece will be placed in a cellophane envelope and shipped in a rigid photo mailer.



The collage is signed and dated on the back, and I have also initialed and dated the front.

This was 7th in a series done early in 2008 as part of an Etsy group challenge to do a collage a day....I didn't quite finish the month, as this was the last one done in the series.

Materials: stamped/embossed rubberstamped images, handmade papers, scrapbooking papers, leather, glue
