red with white polka dots

Cut-paper collage postcard created for swapbot swap "Put a Mushroom on It." In popular depictions of mushrooms, the red ones with white polka dots are actually one common (U.S. & Europe) species, the fly agaric. It's probably more striking when seen from the top, but these side views show the growth stages from mere pinkish buttom to mature specimen with jaunty fringed veil. All the other stuff is from the scraps box on my work table.
