A turning Pion Merry go round

Today, we are using sponsored  Pion papers over at StampARTic. I have created a Merry go round box with papers from Pion.

The Merry go round is on a circular box and it does turn around.

I have used papers from  My Beloved son collection.

The horses have been cut from photos of some horses out of Pion papers. The supports are straws with washitape.

The box is also covered inside with Pion papers.

Here is a little film to show the box and how it is turning around.

Give the ones you love wings to fly.....

A few weeks ago, I got a Design Team task from Hobbykunst . The task was to create something out of a set of metal wings from Rayher. I wanted to create something different with the wings, and created a set of black Mixed Media wings, with Prima flowers and chipboards.

The wings has been glued to a pin (to be able to fix the wings to a teddy bear). Then. I glued metal bits to the wings, let it dry and painted everything black and left it to dry. After that, I added Metamica for effect and added flowers and Chipboard leaves. 

The leaves has been distressed with distress ink, and I have added gesso to the flowers.

The metal wings from Rayher before they were altered.
