Altered Embroidery Hoop

This was a fun project. It took quite awhile to choose my papers and everything that went on it but I finally decided on G45 Fairie Wings. I made this for Michelle McDonald and she told me she likes fairies.
I applied Triple Berry Lunar Paste through a Prima Stencil and Later Gator Paste through a TCW Mini Vines Stencil. I fussy cut the fairie and used Tim Holtz Distress Collage Medium Matte on her wings to use Reneabouquets Beautiful Bits Diamond Fine and Vintage Rose Glitter Glass on her wings. I used Orchid and Buttercup Liquid Pearls and Star Dust Stickles on the flowers. The crown on my raised fairie was from Hobby Lobby. I glued a Reneabouquets butterfly in between the fairies hands.
Then, I painted the embroidery hoop with Testors Island Breeze Matte Acrylic Paint and then Gold Metallic Acrylic to tone the blue down a bit. I used a strand of pearls on the hoop from Flair By Me. On the wooden gate, I used Ranger Purple Tinsel embossing powder and Stampendous Shabby White. I then fussy cut a couple of fairies from the G45 collection and added Stickles to them to match my large piece, then glued them on. I added a pretty pendant from Hobby Lobby to it.
Then off to the flowers. The only way I could get the look I wanted was to cut a piece of white card stock to glue the flowers, leaves, dragonfly, butterflies and lace onto. I used Prima Micro Beads in Berry, Tu-tu Pink Mini Prills and Reneabouquets Chunky Glitter Glass to the flowers. Then I glued it down to the hoop. I also glued the little bottle.
I used some old lavender lace and white lace from my stash to the back of the embroidery hoop. Then added a butterfly and dragonfly to it also. On the butterfly I added Metallique Wax in Peacock and Sweet Rose. The silver intricate piece was from my stash that I added to the top along with a Tim Holtz adornment that I added Metallique Wax in Electric Violet and Old Silver.
Special thanks to:
Kelly, for the flowers
Carri, for the pink mini prills and berry micro beads
