And they were happy

Continuing on my best friend theme from yesterday, for my Retro Cafe Art  Design Team post, I wanted to try something a little different, so I made a tiny collage necklace. I love this little box from RCA and it's called a Large Brass Box Flip Frame Acrylic Kit. I  used their dancer images from the Best Friend xoxo Collage sheet for two sides, one side has a tiny ticket sticker and the fourth has words on pink music paper.  There are two flower buttons added to the bottom, a striped ribbon bow, a heart charm and musical charm too. The sentiment says "And they were happy." I photographed it on my trusty dressform named Mary Lou to show to you today.

Hope you will get to be happy sometime this week.
artfully yours, gerri

    Dear Gerri
    You will cause a stir when you are seen out and about wearing such a unique piece of jewellery.
    Oh those little details are so wonderful and I also cannot take my eyes of Mary Lou. If Mary Lou ever wants a change of scenery then she is most welcome in Scotland LOL.
    A wonderfully inspiring start to my blog visits this morning.
    Wishes
    Lynne
