Angel Mixed Media Collage

Looking for new paper craft ideas? Make an Angel Mixed Media Collage from Lisa Fulmer. This is a unique project that looks great.


 

Materials:

• Paper
• Embellishments
• Holographic foil
• Gold mesh netting
• Anise seeds

Directions:

1. I made this 8.5x11 collage for two challenges and it will be a christmas gift for my godmother.
    
2. I tweaked the color of the background to be more goldy-rusty.
    
3. I found a vintage lady in just the right pose on the Internet, tweaked her coloring a bit too.
    
4. Her wing and gown is made from a variety of papers - handmade, translucent, and foil. The holographic foil in her gown is bronze, but the lighting turned it rainbow when i photographed it.
    
5. I added gold mesh netting from the fabric store over the top.
    
6. In the picture frame she is carrying is a detail from a painting called "Spring" that I love, it's at the Getty Museum.
    
7. I used Anise seeds for the stars in the corner.
