Things With Wings by Kaz

I wanted to find something different with wings for my piece this week, so I made The Flion King:


I've taken the back from a ~{Hexagon Frame}~ and painted it with acrylic paints and doodled all over. I stamped a lovely lion and gave him a crown made from the top of a ~{Mini Christmas Stocking}~ (thanks Carol).

I wanted big wings, but not thick ones, so I cut a ~{Butterfly}~ in half and soaked part of it in water for about 5 minutes. This makes it easy to peel a few layers off, but you have to make sure it's completely dry before painting to avoid it disintegrating!

I've painted the wings and doodled on them to finish it off.

If you want to join us and make something with wings, head ~{HERE}~ and enter. You could win some gorgeous Tando goodies.
