My second post today! whoo hoo!!
On our last visit to
Toledo we stoped by Lladró store and they had such beautiful porcelain figurines in white porcelain... So I used them as inspiration. I made something to frame it and have it near me so it reminds me from time to time to just breathe...
I used
Just breathe from
Michelle Perkett, her body was colored with colored pencils, her tail is colored with silver colored pencil and added some glitter glue.
I printed the flowers on the back of silver paint chips, cut them, curled them and glued pearl glass beads on their centers. I applied old silver glitter glue around the flowers. I painted her hair with pearl paint and added some dots here and there.
After I had my image all colored and dry, I cut it and layered it to a silver piece of paper. I pierced around the image and around the silver paper. The iridescent glass beads were stitched with pale lilac embroidery floss.

Awesome job Ileana!!! I had to see more details here than what you wrote on Michelle's Paper Craft Planet group & I'm glad I did! Great idea for the flowers...I may have to lift it for future cards! The colors are great as well as the beading job you did around the edges. Now I can take a deep breath after writing all of this!
