Wither by Rebecca Sinz - Tera's view

Hallo,
   I have had this beauty colored up for awhile and decided it was high time she got finished - I went on quite a coloring binge with my Sweet Peas, so now I have a huge stash of images colored up and waiting for their turn to be finished off :)
   This image is Wither by Rebecca Sinz and I colored her with my prismacolor pencils and cut her out with a Spellbinders die. I found some pretty butterfly paper that looked great with the colors and used it as background but I also fussy cut several butterflies too - I cut out 2 of the little blue one that sits on top of her wing so I could layer him up for a bit more dimension.
   I inked up some white flowers to match and then added glitter - I used stickles ice so clear except the sparkles to her wings, the butterflies, and the flowers, lastly I added a few gold corner stickers.
   All for now - Have a great day!!!
      Tera

I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.
