She has not a care in the world!

I received this image as a freebie in my Stampington and Co. mag a while back and finally got around to using her.

Water colored the image, added a touch of glitter, framed her in flower soft...Applied her to a french music sheet, then to this gorgeous fabric...



Added mica powders to my flowers, creating that lovely duo colored shimmer, a few feathers as my foliage, pretty ribbon, a nice big bow,  and Voila.




 It reminded me of how much fun I used to have swinging as a child; going as high as the swing would go, then jumping off...competing to see who would jump the furthest ....

Linking up to...you guessed it ...Flying Unicorn...Who, BTW, are having a month long sale, 13% off your whole order...

Thanks for peeking !

  5. Stunning piece, so pretty. I loved the swings as well when a girl, would stay on until I felt sick sometimes, but then I always was silly girl.
