We are still looking for Things with wings but this week we would like you to use some Acetate on your project.
So here is mine.
This week I have done a wall hanging as I was already playing about with the corrugated card in my craft room, I decided to use that. I started by covering a Tattered Angels mask with a metallic blue texture paint, then cut out two butterflies with a Marianne Design Die, one with blue card and the other with acetate.
As you can see in this close up I covered the acetate butterfly with blue and white inks to give the soft mottled effect, I then glued both together in the centre and added come black stones.
I then made three paper flowers to go in the bottom right corner. I love making these as no two are ever the same, I just draw them by hand, cut and roll and see what happens. After I had finished with the main part of the wall hanging I went looking for some plastic mesh I have to finish it off. As normal with me I couldn't find it but I had some chicken wire under the table from a project I had done a while back, so I cut a piece of that to size, added some leaf ribbon and the cardboard and that is it finished.
Do come over to Make My Monday and have a look at what the rest of the team have been up to this week, and join in the fun.
I would also like to enter this over at Fashionable Stamping Challenges where this weeks challenge is to use handmade flowers.
Thanks for reading,
Cath
