Another Idea: Trash to Treasure

I did the canvases, as I was cleaning out my studio room, I pulled out some watercolor paper, well there went my cleaning, out the window...I had to see if I could do the same technique as the canvas...Yep...it worked, then I had to set it on one of my bent spoons
Should I make them into pins?
I'm going to put some Diamond Glaze or heavy varnish on it too.
************
I signed up for Trash to Treasure HERE
I was ready to throw out this scrap of watercolor paper, used a paper punch painted over the previous watercolor and used an old spoon to make an easel.
The ribbon was left over from another project.

That is darling. You wanted to know what my fabric was. I usually use silk but I found this precious cotton fabric with tiny, tiny roses, very faintly on the fabric. Then I covered 3/4 of the heart with vintage lace.Sharon
