Include items like various types of papers, adhesive materials, cutting tools, colored markers, paints, textures, and embellishments. This curated set will provide her with a wide range of materials to experiment and innovate with.

2. Mixed Media Art Workshop: Consider enrolling her in a local mixed media art workshop or class where she can learn new techniques and gain inspiration from professional artists and peers.

3. Personalized Photo Collage: Surprise her with a custom-made photo collage using her own artwork as the centerpiece. Collect photos of her artwork or artistic moments and create a beautiful collage that showcases her growth and talent. This gift will not only make her feel proud of her achievements but also serve as a reminder of her passion for art.

4. Art Journal or Sketchbook: A high-quality art journal or sketchbook can be an ideal gift for your daughter to explore and document her artistic ideas. Look for one that is specifically designed for mixed media art, with sturdy pages that can withstand different materials and techniques. Include a heartfelt message or quote on the first page to add a personal touch.

5. Inspiring Books on Collage Making: Find books written by renowned mixed media artists or collage makers that will inspire and provide guidance to your daughter. Look for titles with step-by-step tutorials, examples of different styles and techniques, and artist profiles. These books can serve as valuable resources and sources of inspiration that she can refer to whenever she needs a spark of creativity.

6. Subscription to an Art Magazine: Consider gifting her a yearly subscription to an art magazine that focuses on collage making, mixed media art, or contemporary art in general.
