nancy maxwell james . . . .

is a multi-talented mixed media artist and I absolutely adore her beautiful creations.  For the first 14 days of February she has been sharing some LOVE-ly projects for free on her blog.

Yesterday I spent some time making a few tags inspired by Nancy's work.  Here is one of them:

 

 

 

 

and here is another:

I used old book and music pages, old wallpaper samples, vintage seam bindings (dyed the teal one with distress ink) and various other items.  You would not believe the mess I make when I start pulling out collage sheets, images, ephemera, lace, buttons, etc.!!  But, I must say it is so much fun and I wish I had more time to just play. . .

Hope your day is filled with things that make you happy!
