Hi Everybody!
Today I am sharing some autumn leaves I made, some of
which I used for my autumn fairy. The fairy isn't finished yet,
so this is a WIP. I will have her finished over the weekend.

Today I am sharing some autumn leaves I made, some of

For the leaves I painted, sprayed, dripped, glittered and stamped onto
an A3 sheet, which I cut into leaves using a Sizzix die.
Then I gave the individual leaves a coating of Deco Art
crackle glaze, and gave them some folds to make them
more dimensional:
I really like the effects I got.
We had some wonderful sunrise scenes this week:
Autumn is showing itself from its loveliest side:
Have a great day, take care
and thanks a lot for coming by!
valerie das ist eine bezuabernde Herbstfee jetzt schon und die Herbstblätter hast du toll ausgeschnitten und bemalt als Haare eien tolle Idee!Das Gesicht ist so goldig!
ReplyDeleteDa freu mich schon auf das fertige Bild!
Deine Fotos von der Tierwelt sind wieder wunderschön!
Bei mir ist wieder mal Sturmböen und dazwischen Regen..
ich hoffe dass ich morgen mal eine Fahrradtour machen kann mal schauen, mein Schatz erhob den Finger pass mir auf weil Äste und Dachziegel die sind jetzt überall locker also bitte nicht raus gehen bei dem Sturm. Gut sehe ich auch ein *zwinker* bin daheim geblieben.
Ich wünsche dir noch einen schönen Abend!

I love your finished piece and I especially loved seeing how you made your leaves! They're beautiful -- I would put them all over the house!
ReplyDeleteGanz toll deine Herbstfee mit ihrem schönen Blätterhaarschmuck. Die Blätter sehen fast echt auch mit den perfekten Herbstfarben. Klasse Idee aus dem schönen Hintergrund Blätter zu stanzen. Die Fotos sind auch klasse, das Scheckenpferdchen hätte ich schon gerne.

Oh wow, I adore your wip Autumn fairy! Those leaves look absolutely amazing, almost like real leaves; love the aaddition of the crackle glaze and the folding for dimension. Stunning photos too!
ReplyDeleteI love the effect you got with these leaves too. They are really cool. The fairy is coming along great-can't wait to see it finished up. :) Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI love how you took us step by step showing how you made these leaves. You must have a LOT of dies. The leaves turned out great, the face is beautiful, and I look forward to the weekend reveal.
ReplyDeleteLoved the ducks and the geese. I was surprised one horse had a winter or autumn "coat" on, while others didn't. Beautiful stills.
The leaves were cut with one die which has the four different leaves on it.
DeleteBeautiful post, and those leaves, wow, just amazing and the 'cracked' look is so realistic...love your post my lovely.xxHave a lovely weekend.♥

ReplyDeleteWow, your leaves are really stunning. At first, I thought they were real leaves, but the ones you made are even an improvement over what Mother Nature provides. Very clever!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, too. I especially like the shots of the sky and the silhouette of the bird. (A crow, maybe?)
Have a super weekend.
Fabulous leaves, I love the colours and the crackle - looking forward to seeing the finished project.
