Mixed Media Monday RUST


mixed media Monday's guest hostess is Gillian and she has chosen my favorite theme at the moment.. "Rust" .. i was so pleased it was rust that I spent all of Sunday evening making this picture .. its 18 inches by 12 inches approximately. I don't have a ruler here and I am too lazy to check lol.. if you want to ask anything about how it was made just email :-) x

Wow. beautiful!

I was out geocaching today and saw a wonderful piece of rusted mesh on the floor in the woods. I thought I would pick it up on my way back out but I couldn't find it again. Sob!
