A Giraffairy

Have you seen a giraffary in a cup before? I do! and loved this one in particular. This is Giraffairy from Melissa Liban. I´m so fond of this creation, I made it for the beautiful, darling and oh so cute daughter of my dear friend Gaby, Ana Sofia. I remember Anita wanting to be a butterfly when she was a toddler, how cute of her!! and when I saw this image I just knew what I wanted to make with it. It traveled 8000 miles!
I started coloring the image with colored pencils and glittered the skirt and wings, and I added a bit of blue glitter glue on her magic wand, cut around and glued a toothpick on the back.
Then I took a small plastic ice cream bowl and painted it with acrylic paint, I paint it resembling a little pond, the border reminded me to stones so I painted them in brown and glittered after.
I found those lotus plastic flowers at the dollar store and I had to have them.... I glued the flower with a little water bottle cap underneath and stuck the giraffairy in the center of the flower.
Here you have a picture of my hand with it so you can compare the size, it´s very small...
This is my inspiration creation for The Outlawz  POM challenge group where the challenge was to use things with wings.
Thank you once more for stopping, hope you like my project, I enjoyed every second spent in it!
