ATC 114...Trade Being Arranged!


(Click on image to enlarge.)

This ATC was created after slicing up an older work called Feminine Beauty. It had been a collage of late 19th century engravings (mostly fans and jewelry) on citron colored linen with painted Wonder Under (Bond-a-Web), bits of lace and millinery net, and metallic foiling. It was heavily hand stitched, beaded, and included couched on pieces of costume jewelry and buttons.

The back is a piece of purple wool, signed and dated in free motion machine embroidery.

I'm thrilled to be trading with Barb who has a profile here and a Flickr! account here.
