Souvenirs

Sometimes I incorporate little bits of memorabilia into my collages, because I know they will bring a smile to my face when I remember. This is one of those collages. I recently spent a day with other artists --- painting, collaging, and learning a new-to-me technique that used tea bags. The first thing we did was take all the tags off the tea bags. I loved the staining on this tag and decided to incorporate it into a collage as a souvenir.
