Vintage Ballerina




Something I made. A little heavy on the distress ink but it is a beginning! I used cardboard, glued scrapbook paper to it. Then added each layer of paper, on top is the print of 'Dreaming' and I printed a ballerina on top of that. It's amazing what you can do with a printer. Embellished with vintage punched pages from an old book to look like flowers. I bent and folded them to give them a 3D look and glued. Also embellished with 'fleur de lis' punched from old paper and a dove punched from old paper. Then distressed. Hang it anywhere. on a door knob, from the brass finial on a lamp, with a picture grouping, anywhere you need a little character.
