First steps into the world of mixed-media. I made this for a Danish friend's Hens weekend. There's a lovely tradition in Denmark of everyone giving the bride-to-be a small gift symbolising thier friendship with her. It's then up to the bride to guess which gift is from whom. As a trial of mixed-media, I made this for her.

this is so cool bear! i didnt even notice the gowns until i looked for a minute or two...! so much detail
Wow! You are so clever Bear. I thought the gowns were the red wild poppies seen in european fields in spring-summer on my first glance - and until I saw elle's comment. It's such a pity that you couldn't be there but I'm sure Christina will be thrilled when she gets it. SB
Very clever and very pretty! Such a special gift - well done!
Such a special gift and I adore this tradition:)

Such a lovely tradition! I love it--and your blog!
That's stunning! I'd love to see your partner's little heirloom quilt too!
This is just beautiful! Did she guess who it was from and what it means?
I went to a Hen's the other day and we also played this game...I think it's a fantastic ice-breaker...and tradition!
