fabric page for Patti

I started the day working on this fabric page for Patti but the felt that I normally use was not thick enough to work as a door, so I went on a mad cleaning spree of my studio looking for something thicker. In the end I have a clean studio, thanks to Patti :)












her them was girls with wings in the shades of white, off white and pink.
I hand painted all the pink fabric and fibers with water downed acrylic with supper fine glitter mixed in I printed the images of the girls onto fabric, I used a feather for one girls wings and velvet leaves for the other girls wings, I used vintage lace, pearls and resin paper that I made from a old jewish prayer book.

oh, this is so gorgeous...nice to hear your process too, both the cleaning and then the actual pieces! I do that to in my room....I find tons of stuff when I start to sort....Oh, the fabric you printed on...is that fabric sheets you buy or do you print on your own by putting something under it in the printer? I dunno why I'm asking cause I suck at image transfering of any sort...lol...
