Little Mama Mixed-Media (Cinnamon Pink)

Little Mama Mixed-Media

Today, I finished this mixed-media art piece. The vintage childrens' image comes from Cathe Holden's blog, Just Something I Made.

The 'counting' text is from the Harrington's Spelling Book, copyright 1880. I love the worn and distresssed look of this book's pages and cover. I actually found the book in our local library's FREE Bin. And I was thrilled to save it from the trash. I will post an image of the book tomorrow when there is more sunshine.

This mixed-media piece reminds me of all the Little Mamas who took care of their younger brothers and sisters. I was one of those Little Mamas. Were You?
