Messages From Blanche by Danielle Krysa
Danielle, AKA The Jealous Curator, had a really cool story about this above piece. She explains:
messages from blanche is about my grandmother, blanche – that’s a photo of her the year my mom was born. right before she died she told my mom that her spirit was pink. after she died really strange pink related things started happening… my mom’s white rhododendren (sp?!) bush bloomed one pink flower, in november!!!, and it stayed there for one month. i had a little red rose bush on my bedside table that hadn’t bloomed in 4 years. it threw one pink bud and it stayed there for a month before it dropped. so… this piece is about those “pink” messages. lucy had included that amazing little folded paper envelope in her scraps so i HAD to use it 😉
And, better yet? “That house in the envelope is the house I lived in when I was little,” she writes.

January 2, 2015 at 5:31 pmWonderful collages, I really enjoyed looking at them all.
I sent my collage scraps to my swap partner at the beginning of December and have emailed a couple of times but haven’t heard back from her, nor received scraps from her. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she sends me something, I’m itching to get started!
