Mixed Media, Here I Come!!!!

OMG! OMG! OMG! I'm so excited!!!! I just finished my first ever canvas. *Insert happy dance here*. This one is for my mother's birthday. I decided it was the right thing for her to have the honour of my first canvas.
Here's a close up of the butterflies, bling, and dress form. Yes, in my true fashion, I have added bling to my canvas. Yes, those are real paper ruffles on the skirt (I won't mention how frustrating and difficult that part was, lol!).
Here's my little quote. For the life of me, I can't remember where I saw or heard this quote. I googled it, but nothing came up.

So, what do you think? I would be thrilled for some feedback, so if you would be kind enough to leave a comment, I would be truly appreciative. I need to know if this is an avenue worth persuing. But if it doesn't inspire anyone creatively, then I might have to go find something else to do. (-:

  3. It's very nice. Perhaps to take it to the next level of inspiration to us you could share some insights into the process of creating it. You know, like how you formed your ideas, the layers in progress, some of the techniques you used.... etc etc

  5. Very beautiful Jules! Personally I don't spend a lot of time on canvases - as divine as they are - just because they are time consuming & I have so many photos to scrap & layouts due in but once in a while it's such fun to make a gorgeous gift that you hope will be treasured :)
