Do you remember a few months back when I made this little beauty??....
If you didn't catch that tutorial you can see it HERE!! It was my first attempt at 3D decoupaging!! It took a lot of time and a lot of experimenting, but it was well worth every minute!! What you may have forgotten was that this was only ONE of THREE that I made!!
TA-DAAA! I not only created the flower, I also did a tree and a sun! They each turned out fantastic!!! Just to recap....My friend Angie is reworking her twin girls room! She wants custom, colorful, large pieces of art! So this project is for her!!
I decoupaged the background of this just like the flower! (Go HERE!! if you need a reminder) For the actual tree, I tore pieces of paper, then wrinkled them before decoupaging them down! I wanted to give the tree a more realistic, textured look! I then added a few birds and flowers to give the art a more colorful appearance!
Here is a better view of the wrinkled paper! And if you look closely, I added a very special detail to this piece of art.....I took a few twigs and glued them on top of the tree to add more visual interest!
Here you can see the twigs more clearly! I simply hot glued them down and prayed that they would stay! hah So far so good!!
Here is the sun! I really loved the idea of mixing orange and pink together, therefore I decoupaged the background with torn pink paper, and the sun with torn orange paper!
This art doesn't have any 3D elements to it. I did however add a few buttons for extra interest!
And here are the 3 final pieces hanging!! They each turned out perfectly! Angie, I hope your girls are loving their art!!!

I love these! So creative and so pretty! Nice job!

ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration! I saw this on Craft-O-Maniac. I especially love the tree. I think it would be fun to do one with fall leaves.
