Fairy art ~

After making the little plate the other day I couldn't resist making another!
It's a simple design with a beautiful fairy image ~
I enjoy making these collages using plates that have been forgotten but are still so pretty.
Just adding a few elements transforms it from ordinary to wonderful ~
For sale in The Feathered Nest Shoppe :)

I love how just a touch a creativity soothes me...







Here's an amazing fact....
When she was little, I used to babysit this precious girl singing (dark hair) ~
Megan of Casting Crowns
If you have time, listen to this wonderful song!





Wishing you a great Wednesday dear friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn

Sweet little fairy plates. I have a simple handle plate that was part of my mother's collection that I have set aside to do something like this. You reminded me of it. When the dust settles......
Beautiful song....
Love that new banner!! Perfect for the change of seasons we are having.
Savor the remaining days of summer, dear Dawn.

I love your little fairy. And what a beautiful song/girl. They do grow up so fast don't they? I remember babysitting. But, I have no idea where any of those little darlings went. Have a great day.

Dearest Dawn,
I've been following your blog for a couple of weeks now, and I love what you're doing. Your artwork is superb and your writing reveals the sweet nature that I know you have. It's like coming home every time I open The Feathered Nest! I even went clear back to your first blog, just to enjoy what you do.
By the way, thanks for sharing music with us today. I'm a singer myself, so it touches my soul!

Dawn,

Thank you for sharing this beautiful music this morning. I just got news that a young girl I know who has cancer is not doing well. The words of this song minister to my heart as I carry her to Him in prayer. From our view her battle looks like it being lost but I know He loves her and is by her side. Thank you for giving me the words to pray through this song.
