Believe in Magic by Mandy

 When I think of Autumn, I think of leaves blowing in the wind, cool crisp days and beautiful colors!  I decided to create an "Autumn Fairy" mixed media canvas  full of rich colors, leaves and the feeling that her hair and sash is blowing in the wind.....

October Challenge - Falling For Autumn Mood Board
hosted by Dana.

 I envisioned this "Autumn Fairy"  to look exotic and beautiful.

I added some digi leaves to her head piece provided by

Here is the full photo of the completed project.

I added the little journaling to her flowing sash that reads "Believe in Magic" from 7 Dots Studio "Love is in the Air" Collection click here.

Below shows a better view of the scroll chipboard from Creative Embellishments.

I used colored pencils on the digital leaves and I heat embossed the chipboard.  I then added some paints.

Here is a collage showing how I started with the rough sketch on a 12x12 scrapbook paper.

and lastly I will be adding her to my Facebook cover page.  I did some photoshop on her using PicMonkey...

From that moment, I became totally amazed and thrilled by all the beautiful papers and decorations in the art of scrapbooking. After some time as a captivated scrapper, I got curious to create my own patterns. I have always had a devotion for color and form. I had access to great printing facility, as I worked at a printers office. Since 2007, I have been blessed to be able to work with my great passion - to design and create colored coordinated paper.
