Sunday Postcard Art: Tape

This is an unusual challenge theme, one that fits in more with my "hands-on" art endeavors than digital. But...with digital collage, there's usually a way to do just about anything. And there's no mess to clean up! Image credits for the piece below: Lorine Pimenta, Media Militia, Land of Nod.
