International Fairy Day Blog Hop with Leslierahye

By
Altered Pages Design Team member Leslierahye is hosting an International Fairy Day Blog Hop! We have several fairy collage sheets in out collection that are perfect for the  day.
For this special occasion I have created a couple of "button fairies" using the Altered Pages Collage Sheet called "Fairy Dolls".  I have combined buttons, gears and other metal findings to create the fairies.  

To make them wire together layers of buttons and gears to create the "tail".  Adhere image to a thin piece of chipboard, fussy cut the image and glue to the top button.  Add wings and gem to head piece.

Supplies:
Altered Pages Fairy Dolls Collage Sheet
Buttons
Gears and metal pieces
Foil Wings
Wire 
Seed Beads
Gem/pearl
Quick Dry Glue

Button Fairies would make great embellishments on layouts, cards or gifts! Have fun making them you are only limited by your imagination!

Altered Pages has a monthly themed challenge, please join the design team and create a card or altered item and link it up... check HERE for details!

Hope you are enjoying the hop!!! Go over to the next blog and see more amazing fairies!

    These ladies could grace a lapel by adding a jewelers pin to the back!

    These are delightful - and I thought the same thing as Jean M! - they would make lovely little brooches!

 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.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
