Dreamers of Dreams

 So, I just made this piece for the Dec Gecko Galz Challenge.

The challenge is called DREAMY

This is my interpretation

I started off with a wooden easel 6" x 8"

Taking a few different shades of blue acrylic paint, I painted it all to resemble a sky. Let dry

Using a pouncer brush, I did a dry brush technique to form clouds.

While they were trying, I decided on my digital focal point. the one I chose is from the DREAMLAND sheet.

I edged the edges in gold wax paste and set aside.

Next, I checked placement for my pic, then took some metallic die cut gears, and glued them to the wood.

My picture was glued over top.

I cut out butterflies from scrapbook paper, folded them in the middle to make their wings stand up, and glued them randomly in the background. I then cut out seagulls + used 3d pop dots.

Lastly, I glued the die cut word Believe to the bottom, then  stamped + embossed the dream verse + glued it to the top.

Then I added a few painted chipboard gears around my pic.

What do you dream?
