Facebook Challenge for April by Dianna's Crafts

Hi Everyone, Dianna here with a new Tag for Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts Craft Group Monthly Challenge.  The first of each month there is a new challenge.   This month's Challenge is an Inspirational Challenge, anything to do with Spring.

All you have to do is become a member of the Craft Group on Facebook and submit your entry.  The winning entry will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts




I used the above pictures as my inspiration for my April Tag.  I painted the tag with white acrylic paint then punched a 3 inch scalloped circle and used it to daub clouds with three different colors of blue ink and a purple ink.  I then used the scalloped circle and texture paste to create the swirls.  I painted the grass with apple green paint and distressed the grass with green ink.



I painted the kite, little dancer, flower and spring with white acrylic paint.  I used Copic Markers to create the dress.  The trick is not to let the markers dry but keep going over it with different color to get the flowing dress.  I used chalk ink on the kite, flower and spring.  

Thank you for looking!
