Hello little fairy!

Hello everyone!
Today I'm sharing my project for ColourArte.
It's a small canvas in a shadow frame for my daughter's bedroom.


ColourArte Products for this project:
Other Supplies:
  • Balsa wood
  • Stamp
  • Gesso
  • 2 Crafty Chipboard
  • flowers
  • Prima resin window
  • Wooden label
  • Gold thread
  • Sequins
  • Stapler and scissors
  • Shadow Frame
So, lets get started!

1. I cut with scissors the balsa wood in house shape and painted it with the blue shades Twinkling H2Os Watercolors and with the Warm Grey color the edges. I also made with my pencil a couple of carves to make the wood pore real.


 2. I stamped the dress of the fairy, painted it with the Twinkling H2Os Watercolors and cut it around with scissors. Then I took one of my daughter's photo, cut around the part of the head and glued it on the fairy's painted body.

3. As I wanted my fairy to hold something like the original on the stamp, I decided to make some hearts with rice paper. I painted them with the Twinkling H2Os Watercolors African Jade, Pearl Gold and Vanilla Bean and used the stapler to give it more interest.

4. In order to alter the chipboard pieces I used all the Twinkling H2Os Watercolor shades plus the Radiant Rain spray Sunburst. I chose this spray because it has a really bright yellow and I really love it!

5. I glued all the embellishments on the balsa house and then I spread some of the three Primary Elements colors here and there. I really love how they blend together and I always use them as a final touch on my projects.

6. I glued the fairy with the hearts on the composition and the hole project on a white cardstock which I had gessoed previously. I placed in a IKEA shadow frame and made some doodling and splashes around the composition.

Here are some closeups...




...and the finished project. It's already hanging in my daughter's bedroom :)

Bluebirds - Guest Designer at B71B

Πριν από λίγες μέρες είχα κερδίσει στην πρόκληση 'FORGET ABOUT MODERATION AND GO CRAZY' του Berry71Blue  και τώρα με αυτή τη σύνθεση επιστρέφω ως GUEST DESIGNER για την τρέχουσα πρόκληση της Vicky:
Hello everyone! Few days ago I won at Berry71Blue challenge 'FORGET ABOUT MODERATION AND GO CRAZY' and today I'm back as GUEST DESIGNER  for the current challenge:

White Christmas!!! (or white winter for those that don't celebrate Christmas)Create whatever you want as long as it has a white background as a base and is related to Christmas/winter...




Άσπρο φόντο λοιπόν και χειμωνιατικο τοπίο... Ο συνειρμός πάει αμέσως σε χιόνι, έτσι δεν είναι? Βρήκα λοιπόν την κατάλληλη ευκαιρία που έψαχνα, να χρησιμοποιήσω αυτή τη φωτογραφία με τα χαριτωμένα μπλε πουλάκια (τα οποία δεν ζουν εδώ στην Ελλάδα) που κάθονται το ένα δίπλα στο άλλο για να ζεσταθούν, μέσα στο χιονισμένο τοπίο... Τι τρυφερή σκηνή!
Η ιδέα μου ήταν να δημιουργήσω μία απλή σύνθεση πάνω σε λευκό χαρτί, που να αναδεικνύει την πανέμορφη αυτή φωτογραφία: λίγα χαρτιά το ένα πάνω στο άλλο με την φωτογραφία στην κορυφή, πάνω από ένα λευκό φάκελο και όλα καρφιτσωμένα με ένα συνδετηράκι. Ένα χαρτί με πεντάγραμμο βαλμένο σαν κλαδί κάτω από την φωτογραφία, δύο-τρία στολίδια (η Prima λάμπα με την λέξη care=φροντίδα, έγνοια νομίζω ότι ταιριάζει τέλεια!) και μερικές σφραγίδες να πλαισιώνουν την σύνθεση. Δεν θα μπορούσε να λείψει το gesso βεβαίως βεβαίως - γίνεται χιονισμένο τοπίο χωρίς gesso? Και φυσικά μερικές σταγονίτσες γαλάζιο glimmer mist σαν τελική πινελιά ;) 
Vicky's challenge demands white background as a base and is related to winter. The first thing one will think is "snow", isn't it? So... I found the right chance I have been looking for to use this beautiful photo with those cute little bluebirds (what a shame they can't be found in Greece) sitting next to each other to warm themselves. What a tender moment this is! 
My idea was to create a composition that highlights this beautiful photo: few pieces of paper placed carefully on top of each other,  a white envelop, the photo placed on tool of everything and a paper clip. I placed a paper with music sheet as a branch under the photo, a couple of embellishments (the Prima light bulb with the word "care" was perfect for this) and some stamping. Of course my favorite gesso is present - you can' t have snow without it, wright? And finally few drops of Patina glimmer mist as the final touch ;)  



Αυτά και για σήμερα. Αν σας άρεσε η σύνθεση, μπορείτε να ρίξετε και μια ματιά στην σχετική ανάρτηση του  Berry71Blue.
Thank you so much Berry71Blue for this honor - it was really fun creating this page!
