Here's what happens when it is getting close to Valentine's Day and I feel the need to create outside my normal comfort zone! Presenting 3 collage hearts for your consideration.... please remember, I am not a collage or mixed media artist. I just like to play around with stuff to see what happens!
The 2 in the top row are complete; I'm just getting started on the bottom one. (Did I really just use a semi-colon? LOL Haven't had a use for one of those in years.) I used 4 inch tall heart cutouts and a variety of embellishments: acrylic paints, lace, seed beads, copper foil tape (which I actually soldered!), mulberry paper, rubber stamping, magazine clippings, drywall tape, hand-hammered copper wire and buttons.
So whaddya think? No matter what, I had fun making them and explored something different!
Greetings!

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” – Steve Jobs

This is my first time to your blog. I followed the link from creativeeveryday.com. I love your hearts especially the drywall tape. Inventive. Love it. I can't wait to explore your blog further.
