Bit of Nature

For a swap on Swapbot. This ATC had to contain something from nature. I chose a dried pansy sticker - it is a real pansy. I made a window in the front of the ATC and collaged the front with a few papers and a flower which was cut from a piece of scrapbook paper. I added some tiny beads in shade of purple. I then made the background behind the window from a piece of what I think is rice paper (it's actually two pieces of this paper, I only had a small scrap) which I colored with watercolor pencils and painted to blend. I put the sticker on the rice paper and glued the sticker/paper combo to the back of the collaged piece.

 

Mixed media is so much fun!
