Sorry If the recipients have not received these yet, but I had to post today as I knew I wouldn't have time the rest of the week. I am hoping that people got them today as they were posted on Thursday.
Here are the beautiful backgrounds I received from Carmen
I especially love the fungi on this one!
And the braille paper on this one.
And here is what I did to them

I found this hard, it took me so far out of my comfort zone I didn't think I'd get back again! I don't use a lot of collage and have never done purely collage before. I so wanted to just give it a spritz with a bit of spray ink or doodle something with a paint pen, they just didn't feel finished to me! I also didn't know if I was 'doing it right' but having now seen everyone else's I have a much idea of what it's all about and don't feel I was too far off the mark!
