Fabric Bird Collage

I'm just loving playing with fabric at the moment.  The base of this 6" x 6" collage is a piece of grunge board that I sewed a piece of tea-dyed ticking to.

Then, I just layered up things I love:

• stamped, tea-dyed tag
• piece of handmade paper
• page from a vintage book
• old postage stamp
• scrap of an old vintage map
• vintage buttons

The main focal image is a bird from an old book page (found in the Vintage Page Bird Kits) adorned with an old lens.  Everything was either sewn onto the fabric base or adhered with gel medium.  Here's some close-ups:

 

 

I'm linking to the following Brenda's Tuesday Treasures.

Happy Creating!
