Mixed Media Monday -Charming Junk

Thanks for the challenge. It was a lot of fun finding bits and pieces to build my lady. Picture looks much better enlarged to see the details. I started off with just a face and added (digital) scraps - torn cardboard for dress, bits of lace and ribbon, silk rose for hat. Dried roses by Trish Jones, clock by Kubivet, shoes by Lorie Davison.
