Wings again



I made the mistake of ordering new colors of film for wings, and just had to try out a couple of them today. The first pair was made with a pale color film and really looked washed out when I hit it with the heat gun. So it got a treatment with alcohol inks. I wasn't too thrilled with it at first, but after glittering it up with micro beads and glitter(of course) I like it a bit better. The second one was made with a richer colored film and so many colors appeared when it was heated, I wouldn't have known what to add, so I left it as is. I wish the sparkle of the beads and glitter showed up better in the photos!

Mary the wings are stunning. I don't think the pictures do justice the anything made with these films. For some reason the colours don't show well but oh I know they are gorgeous and I love the shapes.

Sweet Mary, BOTH are MARVELOUS! You have made wings that ANY fairy would be proud to wear! I love both pair, but I rather PREFER the more 'muted' ones. I think they would be just right for a CLASSY fairy! You know - basic black and tasteful, subdued wings with just enough beading to be spectacular! (Ha! As IF I would know CLASSY from CRAZY attire! Well, actually, I KNOW it - I just don't WEAR it! LOL) BEAUTIFUL WINGS! BEAUTIFUL WING ARTIST!

Oh Mary those wongs are just awesome. The first one is so subtle in color but is beautiful that way. I just love the way you shaped that second set of wings as it is so unique. You are such a class act!
