Close your eyes!

I have had some time to play in my craft room and have another page for Yvonne's 'A World of Fantasy' at Art Journal Journey.

 I started with a smudgy blue and white background. 
I used my favourite Crafty Individuals background stamp and some Tracy Evans dragonflies and hearts over the top
I found some blue and white fabric and some canvas and used a Crafty Individuals stamp which I stamped in grey and blue(this is the second generation stamping)....

...so that I could giver her different coloured wings.I also added some flowers using the first stamped image
Al I had to do then was add Stickles, Nuvo Drops, package netting and some lacy type trim.
Although I think she is a fairy masquerading as an angel I love the TE quote and Close your eyes is on a sheet of stamps that I can't name!!!

I would like to enter at 
Penny Black and More - Make it Feminine challenge
Simon Says Monday Challenge - Monochrome

I have a couple more posts scheduled as we are off to check out the caravan garden among other things!!

Thanks for looking, Chris

    What a romantic fantasy. Your added embellishments turned this into a gem. I love the feminine lace, and of course, the dragonflies. It's a genuine beauty and I love what you have created for Yvonne's theme at Art Journal Journey. Have a safe trip to the caravan.

    This is magical starting with the beautiful background, almost too good to cover up, but the fabric and the fairy/angel stamp and the flowers finish it so beautifully. I love this.

    I love the light blue and that fairy image. It makes the page so delicate and not quite totally feminine using blue. Perfect choice. Hugs-Erika

    Such a beautiful ethereal feel to this piece all the more for using the blue colour I think. Wonderful work.

    This is really a beautiful piece! I love the way you incorporated so much texture and dimension! The colors are so soft and lovely, too. The whole thing has a fairytale-magical type of feel and I enjoyed seeing it so much. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
