I'm not a smoker but I will admit that I do like the faint smell of cigars that emanates from the wood of cigar boxes as I work on them. These little girls are images from PaperWhimsy. I layered beeswaxed papers including vintage ledger paper behind them then built up the assemblage pieces on top finishing with lace. It's difficult to capture the depth of the collage in the photo. Hey, what could be better than children sitting atop of birds?LOL These are my entries for Mixed Media Monday this week

Heather, I know that every time I come to your blog there is going to be a treat! These boxes are incredible. You are such a talented artist!
What beautiful boxes, Heather. We used to make all sorts of things from cigar boxes like doll beds and such. This is a wonderful use for them. Love the kids on back of the birds.

These turned out wonderfully Heather! Such sweet boxes. thank you so much for sharing your talents with us! Love, Jamie
How beautiful, both of them.
These are wonderful, Heather--love the color, images, and depth of your work! You always find the coolest quotes, too--I just visited our nearest library branch today--one of my favorite places in the world is the public library, and I thought of you. I wish I'd been able to get a degree in library science versus the one I got in English--I think it would have served me better, jobwise! Have a great week!
Gorgeous! I wanna fly with you!
Great little boxes Heather.
Beautiful pieces, Heather! Diane
