Book Worm Fairy

Hi everybody :), I can feel spring in the air (although we wake up to the rainy day). This springy things made me smile everyday, cause I love spring most of all (oh yes, I love summer and autumn and winter too :D - but spring is special).

I tried to make my first mixed media - I got blank canvas for loooong time, and it only lays on my shelf (and catching dust). Soooo I decided to try mixed media. After hours and hours watching tutorials, became the D-day and I made it. And here is result:

First I painted blank canvas with my Gesso Primer, after drying, I painted it with black acrylic. With DIY texture paste I made some elements with my stencils (writing, butterflies, roses).

And then I used Izink Dye Ink Sprays (all over my work tabel, hands, dress and finally canvas :D)

I used these sprays: Dye Izink Cassis, Dye Izink Cerise, Dye Izink Mer du Sud

For glittery effect I combined Perfect Pearl powder with water (mixed it together in empty spray bottle).

Then I colored this gorgeous image. I choosed it as my prize from Crafts and Me - and it is called Book Worm Fairy, by Hannah Lynn.

I colored her with Copics Ciao (skin) and aquarell pencils.
