My sweet friend Kristine recently moved into a new house. I wanted to do something for her as a housewarming gift, so I went with fall colors and a folksy feel.
I'm learning to incorporate collage into my work and I have to admit I love the texture and pattern it brings. It's so much more interesting:)
Finally in it's new home. I think it looks really pretty there.
Have a blessed day.

You painted this? Awesome, what a talent you have and how lucky for your friend to receive a little piece of you to have in her home!
