The background is acrylic. I was impressed by the look since I had never been good with dimension. The chess piece (a queen) is covered in magazine images and words picked to emphasis the media's portrayal of women (and why I think we are nuts). I coated the entire piece in mod podge.
On canvas - I painted in acrylic and created the skirt out of scrapbooking paper. I did cover the skirt in mod podge to protect the paper and give it sheen. The image is of a woman dancing but my mother thought she looked a little like a tea pot in my sketch so I emphasized that just a little when I made the full sized piece.
I wrapped the wire wreath form with wire trimmed ribbon, attaching it with chenille stems. I made mini-books out of card stock. The covers are images from Nightmare Before Christmas valentines I printed off the Disney website and inside are quotes from the movie. I attached the books with ribbon to match.
Simple tiara made from chenille stems and pony beads.
