Serving up dragon, three ways

Image
By
Hi everyone!  Robin here today and I've got a trio of dragon pieces to share with you.  This month Altered Pages has partnered with Faerie Song Art Stamps and the design team has been sharing some great fantasy artwork with you.


I used two very fun dragon stamps from Faerie Song Art Stamps to create a clean-and-simple greeting card, a tag and an ATC. 


There were supposed to be "in progress" photos to share but my computer was mimicking a hungry dragon and ate my camera's memory card!  Here are the completed pieces. I hope you like them.  There is a list of supplies at the bottom of this post.


Greeting card
The dragon on this card was colored with watercolor pencils and a water pen.

Artist Trading Card (ATC)
The map on this ATC is a scrap leftover from another project.  I find ATCs the perfect way to use up random scraps because of their small size.

Altered Tag
It's a shame that the scan can't show you the shine of the dragons on this tag.  The mica in the watercolors is so beautiful.  And the shiny mica chip, Dew Drops and a rhinestone sticker all compliment the dragons very well.


I hope you enjoyed the art I've shared here today.  Stop by tomorrow for more projects and inspiration!

Supplies:
Glitz papers
Tag
Watercolor paint
Watercolor pencils
Waterbrush
Black pigment ink (with clear embossing powder)
Gelatos
Mica chips
Dew Drops
Rhinestone
German Scrap
Double-sided adhesive
Glue stick & Tacky glue
ScorPal
Assorted fibers

Collages:
Ancient Map

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
