Shining Star
Ξ April 10th, 2008 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Art-tastic |

This gave birth to itself really. I just started and before I knew it I had a glittering moon dancing above the stars. You can’t tell here but the black stars are very glossy. I started the paper cross for my mom and it’s between layers at the moment on my desk with a coat of wet gesso, so I thought I’d get this up while it dried. My Princess hanging is getting closer to done as well. I have 1 more art card to make for it an then I can string it together and hang it. Since I was feeling especially creative today I thought I’d make lasagna for dinner. I can’t believe I actually had the ingredients. =) Below is a paper Chinese New Years dragon I made a few years. It’s supposed to have dowels inserted to hold so you can use it as a puppet, but I didn’t have the dowels at the time. Nor did I have the heart to spear my dragon!

This is the whole dragon…

And this is a close up of his head.
I got the beeswax today that I ordered Sunday night from hiveharvest.com. I couldn’t wait to try it so I melted a small chunk of it and applied to inside of my journal cover.
I didn’t have the proper brush or iron to smooth it out so I used my heat gun. I can see it’s going to be very fun and open new creative doors when I start working with it. I smells awesome, it’s very comforting and perfect for sipping tea while creating.
Here’s a sneak peek at the Fairy Princess. I’m doing this with very old glasses so be kind. =)

I’ll leave you with this teaser and get back to my fun and my lasagna creation. Have a great day. God Bless!
