A Fairy's Tale

 

I'm once again joining Elle from Empire of the Cat, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  Her theme is Fairytales, Folklore, and Fables - Tell Me A Story. 

I give you A Fairy's Tale.

She spreads her glittery wings

eager

to share her tale,

a tale passed down from generation to generation.

This was a tale about the flowers

around the lily pond.

I started by printing and coloring this image I found in my stash.  If I knew where I got it, I would give credit.  Sadly, I do not.  Possibly from one of the sites I share on my right side bar under "Eye candy and freebies."  I used both water soluble crayons and watercolor pencils to color this.  I am not good at coloring, unlike some people.  For me it is a chore, not a pleasure.  Once completed and dry I added the Stickles white glitter on her wings.

I cut the image to size, then sewed it to a backing of blue scrapbook paper using black, blue, and white variegated thread.

Bleubeard and I are truly delighted you joined us today, and hope to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own take on Fairytales, Folklore, and Fables - Tell Me A Story.
