I am back!

Evening my friends! It has been awhile since I have posted. I apologize that I have not been visiting you guys lately. I had to take a break to physically and emotionally heal. My family has been through and emotional heartbreak and it has taken me sometime to come back to somewhat my old self. I continue to struggle with my health. But am getting better day by day. Making all this nonsense has been my outlet to heal. I hope you all enjoy. I love to do collages on canvas. They are made out of bits and pieces of vintage and new lace and left over scrap booking materials.
The two boxes I purchased at a yard sale. They were already had a spring tulip design. I just added the flowers , feathers and trim to give it more pizazz. I made the little pillow. I do not know whose embroidery design I used. If you recognize it as yours,please let me know and I will give you credit.
I can never leave anything as it is. This lamp is going in my office at work. I used beads and vintage lace to alter the shade. The trim I purchased from Zibbet.com , at SACrafters store.
