Royal Reliquary by Theresa mARTin

The curious spiky frame with stand reminded me of a reliquary form and it called out to be embellished with bling.  I used a digital collage to fit the frame in Photoshop. It could just as easily  have been done using the paper collage sheets. Afterwards, I added some cabochons fit for the beautiful Sheet 200-2 image.     RoyalReliquary_theresamARTin
