We're doing a handmade fall flower swap in our Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group. Here's a peek at what's been growing in my garden....
I used vintage laces, satin, tulle, velvet leaves, guinea feathers, Russian veiling and chiffon to create the flowers with antique, glass pearl and rhinestone button centers.
Each one is lovingly wrapped in a pocket of tulle and enclosed with one of my handmade stickpins.
I made fall bag toppers complete with a beautifully wicked Marie. The wonderful Marie image is from one of my favorite etsy shops,
Altered Artifacts.
(If you're looking for new Halloween collage sheets, you have to visit Inka's shop!)
I can't wait to see what's growing in the other Marie gardens!

Simply breathtaking JoAnne...I adore the rose with the orange leaves! The autumn garden speaks love to my heart and I long for it all year...the other seasons are merely it's handmaidens! and you can quote me:)
