Flying Fairy in My Garden by Velvet

 

I couldn't wait to make this after I had listened to Pomegranite Sarah explain how she started collage as a little girl, with snippets of wrapping paper and nail varnish. I used wrapping paper, paints and the real gold leaf, given to me by Grandad who has kept it for 40years, it was given to him by a friend he worked with in the printing press where he worked as a proof reader. I wanted it to look like the magic that was coming out of the fairy's wand.  Posted by Picasa

I love the use of goldleaf Velvet! I've kept some flower fairy wrapping paper for you so you can do some more collage.
