Faerie Cupcake Pincushion
This month, my Etsy Street Team is designing and creating pincushions. I will be in SAN ANTONIO (yippee!) that night so I made mine ahead and posted it to the group.
My inspiration came from Gale Blair who recently returned from England. We were talking about cupcakes, scones and cream teas...which turned to faeries and whimsies and next thing you knew, I was making a Faerie Cupcake pincushion featuring a whimsy from the fabulous PaperWhimsy shoppe.
After I snapped the photo of the pincushion, I started playing around with it digitally. I'm not very experienced in that department but it was fun. I actually made it "transparent" (don't ask how, I could never repeat the process! LOL) and put a layer underneath it that is a vintage wallpaper which is where the scrolls came from. I have plans for this image...more details to follow. Such fun!
