"C" for Carol

The Bramford Crop girls have been at it again - this time Janet gave us all a letter which related to our name - we could either swap with a partner or do our own...I decided to do my own piece and here it is:-


You wouldn't believe how this piece came about - it was painted - far too boring, then I saw a technique to add fantasy film and fibres - went horribly wrong, so out came the ferro and the heat gun, perfect pearls, spray inks and extra embossing powder and some inka gold...then I didn't want to cover up any of the colour...lol...anyway, some lace, a flower made with glassine and using the tattered florals dies, some beaded pins, some ideology, a swirly flower made froma  circle and then my butterfly...he's made out of Wendy Veech's clearly for art product (don't know what to call it!!) I've stamped a butterfly with gold acryllic, cut it out, warmed it up and shaped it then added a spinner and a bit of prima bling - loving that bling....
