I am not much of a mixed media artist so don't consider my comments gospel but I have a suggestion for you. Your elements in the corners float a bit. Like the egg, crinoline flower and less so, the cross and bottle cap. I know you didn't want to cover all of your book but I think either a paper, chipboard or grunge board flourish perhaps or some other connecting element would ground those lovely embellishments and make them feel a little more part of the whole. Maybe look at Sherry Cheevers look for ideas. Sometimes she swings the other way IMHO with a bit too much going on but she has great ideas! I have been known for not wording things very well so I hope that came across as constructive and nice! Oh and I love the egg! So pretty!Rebecca Edniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14871562426315336608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74844141106596544.post-87959544688127603842011-04-04T13:42:38.874-04:002011-04-04T13:42:38.874-04:00Another fabulous project Linda, so pretty and deli...Another fabulous project Linda, so pretty and delicate!
