Brooch Skull With Cherry Blossoms

I created this "skellie" brooch from one of my original collages. I used a skull image from a 1901 Cezanne Painting. I love to collage so I have a big collection of paper images that I play around with until I create a design I like.

I call this "skellie" my "skull girl with cherry blossoms". She has orange butterfly wings and is adorned with cherry blossoms. I used a high quality print of my original collage for the brooch. It was heat laminated with heavy 7 ml lamination film.

You can create your own paper collage and laminate it to make a brooch. If you do not have your own laminator, you can take it to an office supply store like Office Max.
