A Picture for Yehela's Room - + Tutorial

First of all some news - I am now on the DT of Doodle Garden -
and I am very excited about this, as it is the first DT I have been
on - although I have designed before.  The owner of Doogle Garden
is Jennifer Nilsson and her digis are very cute - worth taking a look
at her blog.  The DT officially start on July 1.

Now for my picture.  I wanted all my figures to have wings, and I
found a 'fairyhouse' to suit the picture. Tutorial of how I
made the picture follows, so continue reading.  I still need to take
the picture to be framed.  It's a pity I couldn't capture all the
glitter on the flowers.  (Think I need a course in photography).
I used hardboard 28cm x 21.5cm. 

















Images - Top right - C.C. Designs - Birgitta
              Top left - Pop N Stick Fairy
              Fairyhouse - Tiddly Inks
              Next to Fairyhouse - BA Friends Were Flowers - Bugaboo
              Bottom left - Sherlock Home
              Bottom right - Daisy Fairy - Inktegrity
Patterned paper - Colorbok - Pattern Pack - Spring Morning
Spellbinders -  Carnation Creations
Glitter Foam - from Wal-Mart















The white scrapbook paper is stuck to the hardboard,
then the patterned paper is cut slightly smaller than the
white paper and stuck on top


















 The two papers stuck together


















The images are coloured (using a computer), cut out and
ready to stick to the background.  Parts of each image were
also cut out in order to do a little paper piecing




















The 'fairyhouse' is coloured and printed onto vellum
















The vellum is attached to the patterned paper using glue dots
















Starting to add images and embellishments until picture is finished.

Hope you like this tutorial.
