worked on this one yesterday...it kinda sat for most of the day without direction and then just came together with the addition of the photo.
the main background image is a picture of fabric swatches from a House Beautiful magazine. i was sewing all day yesterday and thought it fitting.
then i began layering tapes, tags and text i cut from the same magazine. that lattice piece is a die cut (i think it is a quickutz die)
i think the photo finished it...i often buy pictures of other peoples family members on ebay 1) because i feel bad for them and 2) because they make for the best collage images, i mean check out how cool these ladies are!
