I discovered this challenge site, Alter it Monthly, via Zoe, so thanks Zoe. This will be the first time that I've entered anything so I'm hoping this piece will qualify as the theme is 'music' and the background of this piece is from a sheet of music. I covered it in ice resin, along with the main image. Ice resin makes the paper transparent (ish), with like a greasy sticky look, although it isn't (once it's thoroughly dried out). I made a small frame from green wire, suspended the image inside it. Sewed the frame onto a piece of red velvet and white frayed scrim. These were then mounted onto a piece of burgandy felt which has been subjected to the craft tool for a singed effect. I also burnt the holes the ribbon is threaded through with it too. I then mounted everything onto a piece of ice resin music paper and added a couple of eyelets.
Brilliant!
