Here you'll see the last little fairy, driving his butterfly chariot: Fairies, come take me out of this dull world, For I would ride with you upon the wind, Run atop of the dishevelled tide, And dance upon the mountains like a flame. --William Butler Yeats, "The Land of Heart's Desire" There's lots of shine to this little book, but you know how difficult that can be to photograph properly!  Stuff I used-- spritzable inks-- mists or splash background stamps  and ink pads   (all the Neons are on sale right now!) fairy collage page a hint of shimmer-- Wink of Stella pens painty background prints-- Gel Press plate Looking to add a little sparkle and shine to your next project?  USArt Quest has a gorgeous selection of mica tiles, mica flakes, and beautiful Mi...

spring greenery in a fairy pop-up book

As you probably know, Altered Pages is celebrating February with "greenery," the 2017 Pantone Color of the Year.  I love green, and this time of year in the Midwest, I'm ready for a little spring and green!
