Garden Fairy Layout by Nancy


Nancy is with us today to share a loving tribute to her sweet kitty Willie who recently passed away:

Hi everyone, it's Nancy here today.  I'm still missing my kitty Willie so much, and I like to imagine that perhaps he flew to heaven on the wings of a fairy.  This layout was created from my heart.  I hope you like it. I have used two of the small fairies from Gina's Designs, and one of the medium fairies as well as one of the large shuttered windows.

The fairies were painted with clear gesso followed by Twinkling H20's in a gold tone, then dotted with some glossy accents.  I covered the wings with glossy accents then gold glass microbeads.  The steampunk doily is new at Gina's Designs and should be in the shop soon.
I used some Prima resin embellishments to represent the rainbow bridge, and more doilies.  I used a damask stencil on the background paper and also dotted it with glossy accents.
The bricks are also new at Gina's Designs.  The window was dry brushed with gesso and acrylic paint in pastel colors followed by Grecian Gold rub n buff.


Supplies Used:
Steampunk Doilies

Garden Fairy ATC's by Marjolaine


Hello  friends, Marjolaine here! I'm posting today to show you these amazing little garden fairies from Gina's Designs. They come in three sizes and are so much fun to work with!



For my background I used Prima papers that had fairies on them so I thought they were perfect. I added some idea-o-logy decorative tape and some paint and I was done! I used Gelato on my fairies along with a background stamp and a touch of Stickles on their wings.












I'm dreaming up a canvas to use my larger fairies on!
