Gingersnap Creations has another challenge I was interested in ....The Random Red Head Challenge the theme being Crowns.
I had no trouble taking up this task. It came together quite quickly for me. I love Artchix Studio and have ordered supplies from them a few times now and my last order I got some crowns. So here is what I made and I hope you enjoy it.
The actual ArtChix Image is a playing card that I cut the top to a base ATC size arch. I cut another arch and made a window to place on top of the image. I picked colours from behind the woman and used those colours on the top piece. I then took some acrylic paint Timberline green then I used marker caps I dipped them in White and Tomato Spice paint and made random circles.
I added a bit of German scrap also from ArtChix, the crown from Artchix and added the ruby gems to it. I alcohol inked my silver dragon flies because my bronze ones were too dark for the gold. I sanded the background behind the image of the girl a bit to tone it down and add some interest and that is it.
Thanks for looking and now off to do laundry.
This is really a beautiful piece I love the crown and dragonflies.
