Enchanted Beginnings


 Here is the mood Board for Scrap Around the World for the month of May and the link to their site.

http://scraparoundtheworld.blogspot.tw/2015/05/welcome-to-our-annual-epic-event.html



This mood board was released May 1st which happens also to be the birthday of my eldest daughter, so I was very inspired by the whole theme. I was drawn to the corner picture of the basket of roses as my daughter's second name is Rose.

 I am entering my work here for this months competition. The canvas is 40x31 and it was built around this photo one of my talented sisters took of her some years back.



                                                              Here is the canvas...





                                                                  A Fairy Nest...
I was thinking it would be something similar to a Magpie nest with feathers trinkets, flowers soft fabric, old softened leaves...
Yes, I am a Mom of a 16, 12, 3 year old and I do like Tinker Bell movies, Keeps me young at heart.






The roses are from I Am Roses. I thickened the stems by wrapping tape around them, painting them black and adhered black inked sand to make a thorny type texture.



                                Peacock feathers collected while visiting a Bird Park in Brazil...



                                                                 Magic Pixy dust...




                                                       I liked how this corner turned out...




                                                     Cherry blossoms from I Am Roses ...



                   Thanks for looking, never give up on your dreams, and have a great day.

Your canvas is incredible!! your link needs to be LIVE though - in other words you need to be able to click on it to go straight to our challenge post. You do that by selecting the text then clicking what looks like a padlock/chain icon above where you type your posts - then copying that selected text in :) thanks
