. She is a beautiful fairy deserving a special place. This is Ribbon and Stumpwork Embroidery of The Song of the Zinnia Fairy by Cicely Mary Barker 9 1/2" X 12" in a 2" deep Shadowbox. Handmade by me. This picture is very 3-D and deep; the flowers, skirt, and butterfly wings are more than 1 1/2" deep in some places. Much of the ribbon and wire & glitter ribbon is so thick it took pliers to pull the needle with it through the artwork. If you are interested in Ribbon & Stump embroidery, I wrote several how-to articles for Ehow Ribbon embroidery and stumpwork originated in Medieval times. I used more than 20 ribbons to copy the color of Cicely Barker's picture. (Her estate gives written permission in her book to copy and embroider and sell, on a limited basis, her artwork.) I matted the inside of shadowbox with an opalescent glitter two + tone ribbon. This artwork is ready for hanging. I presently have a 9 1/2" X 12" plastic sheet scotch taped to top to keep out dust; but you could easily remove that for better viewing. There is a lot to see in this picture. I ship to all countries. Just "contact" me let me know where you're from; and I'll tell you how much. Let me know if you need another method of shipping or payment than I have listed.

Wetland Diorama Shadowbox of Handmade Frog Pin, Flower Brooch, Dragon Fly Pin, and Butterfly Brooch 11 3/4" inches X 10 X 1 1/2" "with Plexiglas Door. First I went to the Wetlands and got Purple Cattails (in top left of scene) and leaves. I dried, ironed and waxed them. But alas after two years display in enclosed shadowbox, the leaves lost their color. So I painted them. The mixed media used in this diorama scene are: paints, fabric, beads, cattails, felt, organza wire, clasps, thread, batting, ribbons. The 2 1/4"x 1 1/2" frog Brooch is made with a rubber frog fishing lure. The 3 1/2" x 2 1/4" Butterfly Brooch is made with ribbons, beads, organza, wire, luminous trim and clasp on back. The 2" x 2 3/4" Orange Carnation is orange dyed organza, green felt embellished with stitches, and clasp on back so you can remove and wear (same as other 3brooches). The 3" x 3 1/2" Dragonfly brooch has a black shiny bead head with two little eye beads luminous organza lined with wire to shape wings and sewn with metallic blue and gold floss. His tail is made of glass dark blue bugle beads. Also has clasp on back. As you can tell, I love the wetlands and think the nature of it all is beautiful! I ship everywhere. F

This hand sewn by me in Ribbon & Stump embroidery style and displayed it in a favorite Antique Art Nouveau Glass frame. It was all so 1920's it all had to go together. The back of shadowbox frame reads: Victory-type easel back, but it also has a metal picture hangar on top of back. The Ribbon is pulled through the background black velvet canvas fabric to make petals, leaves and stems. The Stump part is where ribbon has padding under the ladybug to make him even fuller. This is a very 3-D picture. This is an art form started in the 17th century. If you are interested in Ribbon & Stump embroidery, I wrote a how to article for Ehow at http://www.ehow.com/how_5107001_do-ribbon-embroidery-stumpwork-embroidery.htmlI embroidered this Most of the pink ribbons have wires in them so the hybiscus leaves are able to stand up a full 2 inches. Good thing the shadow box is 2 inches deep. The second picture is before I put the front glass on (with glue and tape); you can see how three dimensional the petals, leaves, and ladybug are. I ship to all countries. Just "contact" me let me know where you're from; and I'll tell you how much. Let me know if you need another method of shipping or payment than I have listed.
