Queen Gorgo Spartan Queen Artwork

Created this artwork using a Sassy Studio 
digi image, Queen Gorgo, Spartan Queen.

Colored the digi image using Crayola pencil
colors. I found that a white eraser helps to
remove a mistake or lighten the color.

Used some glitter gold cardstock. 

Recycled some upholstery fabric that I got 
at a Live to Go Green event that hubby & I 
attended Sat 4/14. There was a booth that 
for $2 you could fill up a cellophane bag 
with whatever you wanted from their scraps
and goods. I got several pieces of upholstery 
fabric, Vintage buttons, ribbon, Vintage 
charms/jewelry and more. Was a wonderful 
bargain for the $2.

Used Spellbinders die cut.

Used Art Nouveau Cricut cartridge for 
Vase image. Used Kraft cardstock, 
embossed with Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl 
and Ranger Gold Paint Dabber on it. 
Used vellum for a 2nd Vase image with 
hand calligraphy of sentiment:
It all looks Greek to me!

Used foam dimensions to pop up images.

Added some gems for bling & ribbon.
