Garden Collage Sheet
I've been preoccupied with another project and although I love mixed media arts, my true heart is in clay. If you would like to check out what I've been up to you can see it here, www.cathyerdmann.com
Good news is, Jessica Powell will be maintaining this blog beginning September 1st! She is a wonderful mixed media artist and writer, with a past article in Somerset Magazine to her credit.
In the meantime, I've been going through some past graphic files and found a beautiful garden collage sheet, with more butterflies. Thought I'd share it before the gardens are gone and autumn sets in.

Great Little One
This beautiful verse is an excerpt from, A Hymn Sung as by the Shepherds, by Richard Crashaw. I wanted to represent heaven and earth on this card . . . raffia and some dried flowers for the earth and an angel for heaven. Turquoise, Vintage Milk Paint, was used to tint the music paper and painted on the border. Attached is a PFD that includes sixteen of these angels, just the right size for making Christmas cards. Enjoy! Download angels.pdf
