IAE Weekly Challenge - "Melange"

The Inspiration Avenue challenge theme this week was "melange" (it means an assortment, conglomeration, mixed bag, variety, ...you get the idea!)

I loved this theme (once I understood what it meant lol). I was going to make something entirely different but didn't finish it. Well OK, I'll confess, I didn't actually START it!

So in the spirit of the current summery weather I'm submitting this "travel" inspired picture frame. I've used scrapbook papers, bits of a map, a luggage tag, foreign coins, beach finds, and also some netting cut from an old laundry bag and painted! (Cyndi are you proud of me?)

The full list of submissions for this challenge can be seen here.
