Good Morning Sunshine! Upcycled Mixed Media Collage

I have been swamped with my day job and my little ones so I have had ZERO time to create anything for about the past five to six months.  A sweet co-worker of my totally deserved a special piece of art to show her how much I appreciate her efforts with coordinating various aspects of my business.  I am a total thrifter so I have taken a new approach to my art which I am super excited about.  It's really fun to see how my work has evolved over time.  Upcycling precious vintage treasures is such a fun and environmentally responsible way to create!  I started with a vintage metal ivy tray to use as the foundation.  The silver portion of the flowers are mini vintage tart molds.  The cardboard letters are from two 1950's Scrabble games.  Aren't they just such colorful and darling little tiles? I am thrilled with the way this one turned out and she was too!
