Mixed media Monday "Friends"


The theme at MMM is "Friendship".

I created my background with collage. I then made a metal frame with Ten Second Studio's metal and tools etc. that I received as a Christmas gift from my wonderful children. The image is a freebee from Nancy Dooren's site.

    There is just something about metalwork that I find so appealing and this frame is no exception. I love the earthy textural feel of this on your piece. It frames this wonderful collage image so beautifully...and of course you've mounted it and embellished it to perfection.
