Dragonfly by Lori Woods

 Hello creative friends! The detailing on Finnabair’s new moulds is exceptional- when I saw the new Machine Dragonlies mould I knew I wanted the mould to be the star of the show.

I decided to keep the background in black and white and used one my favourite texture pastes, Graphite, with a new Decadent Walls stencil to create this. I added some colour with red jewel paste on chipboard and then used a completely contrasting colour of teal for the dragonfly so it really popped. You can see all the beautiful veining on the wings of the dragonfly and it didn’t take much to make it an eyecatching piece!

Celestial Insects by Lori Woods

Hello creative friends! Are you loving Finnabair’s new releases as much as I am? The moulds and the new decoupage fiber papers can be combined in so many ways!

I decided to return to one of my favourite themes- starry nights- and incorporate some of the fantastic dragon fly and beetle moulds into it. I started by covering my box in the beautiful Nightdreaming paper. For the moulds I wanted to keep the decoration quite simple so you can see all the marvellous details on each piece.

I created little backgrounds for each mould from mechnicals which I covered in rust paste to give a contrast to the bright starry colours. I then finished with some extra sparkle from Finnabair glitters!
