Fairy Slipper Swap at Paperwhimsy!!!

These are for an exchange! I chose the the colors"grunge Marie".

Dusty rose, silver and black.

The pink toile paper is wallpaper my mother in law had in her entry. She love toiles and this paper was handmade! Fortunately she saved the extra paper! The tag ornaments are paperwhimsy girls that I thought might be a young "marie"! I used tim holtz acrylic tags and used golden matte medium to paste image under tag(no muss, no fuss)! the backs of the slippers are all the french toile wallpaper.

I am thinking that fairy slippers might make fun gifts for the holidays!!!

Watch out JIMMY CHOO!!!!

this snowman was my mom's!

He is made of soap suds material. I did have to replace the brim of his felt hat, every thing else is original 1940.

Blue Monday!

Washi paper bowl!

Layers of washi paper layered on a wooden bowl and then removed from bowl . Using the technique you can make a paper bowl out of any papers you wish. The papers must be toner and not inkjet, so the inks don't bleed. Seal finished bowl with acrylic varnish of your choice. (I like Delta semi-gloss)

One powerful hour! Dancing!

I had to share one of my all time favorite pages in an altered book round robin! My theme was "famous movie couples"!

Kathy Parks made the pages of Fred and ginger! The picture of them dancing is a "pop up " off the page. It is my most favorite page ever! When you open the page as seen below the couple and lift it up, there they are, magical!

Thanks to Kathy!!!

Three Muses Time!

I took a picture of my clock in my studio! It sits on a shelf with some special things.

Dailey Design is my business name, there for the green stuff. The mug holds brushes from artist friends, including 1 brush of my dads and where I got my name.
