These pieces were inspired by the fabric flowers I created last spring…you may remember the fabric and lace wedding bouquet I made here…
The tag is quite simplistic – but that is what I love most about. Just some old sheet music lyrics at the bottom of the tag and lace remnants.
The canvas was made using one of the recent cabinet photos given to me by dearest daughter…I covered a flat 8 x 10 canvas with an old tissue dress pattern. Added some vintage Polish sheet music as a layer on top. Next, I glued silver photo corners (E6000 glue) on the cabinet photo and mother of pearl buttons. Add a bit of E6000 to the back of the cabinet card and place on top of covered canvas. I added an antique crocheted doily at an angle in the upper corner (E6000 glue) and attached vintage seam binding ribbon (Oatmeal) and the handmade fabric flower. Super easy and simplistic – but my daughter and I are pleased with the results!
Had to also share this photo from my archives…my Dad (front row left) and his older brother Jack (looking up behind him) when they were choir boys at the Presbyterian church they attended in Detroit growing up. Tugs at my heartstrings!
Happy Saturday! :)
Your art always has a gentleness to it which I love.
No wonder you are pleased with the results …. beautiful.

Are you still having very little sleep?!
Beautiful Nancy! xo
Nancy, again you have shared such a beautiful creation! What great photos your DD gave to you and of course you use them in such a stunning way! Great photo of your Dad! Hope your weekend is going well, we have rain!! Hugs!
Both beautiful, but especially the vintage cabinet card. Love those layers of old pattern tissue. (I’ve got plenty of that around.) Great picture of your Dad.
Beautiful tag and canvas! Love the photo of your dad.
Again two beauties, perfectly made and gorgeous! I am wondering how you manage to glue tinny pieces like silver corners and not get messy all around…for me this is mission impossible :)
Your tag and the canvas are so beautiful, Nancy! Love the photo of your dad.
Have a wonderful sunday my dear.
