Tea Rose #3

Over-printed collage on canvas 8x8x1-3/8"

 

These aren't quite finished yet...I still have to design & print the pattern for the sides of the canvas that will be something like this

 

I'm making 5 of these to begin with...this is the first 2...with more to come probably.

 

I found some fabulous paper at a flea market last weekend that I've used. I was very excited to find a typed & hand-written manuscript from the 1930s written by an astrologer. Luckily, it's in triplicate so I didn't feel too guilty taking the scissors to one copy.

 

These are so much fun to make...sorting out which squares to put together reminds me of those wooden block puzzles I had as a kid...& deciding which dress & rose patterns to use was like playing with paper dolls! :)
