DIY Textured Collage

Repurpose your momentos into unique decor with this mixed media collage. 

From the blogger: "I am a DIY and craft blogger and I am always trying new projects to keep my website fresh and interesting. Mixed media was my latest project. I made a mixed media canvas themed around my daughter's wedding. Elements from her wedding day were added to make the canvas more meaningful. The Memorial charms from her wedding bouquets were added. They were to have her grandmother in heaven with her on her wedding day. The clock was the time she was married. The blue charms were her something blue also on her bouquet. Most of the charms have some meaning to her."
