Lacy Sunshine Indian Maidens

Happy Sunday everyone. Today starts a new challenge for the Lacy Sunshine Color Your World challenge. With Fall in full swing, Heather has created some really beautiful Indian Maidens and I got to color Windsong Indian Maiden.

I colored this beauty with Kuretake Gamsai Tambi 36ct Solid Watercolors and Zig Clean Color Watercolor markers.
I also created the cornucopia using card stock, burlap, corn husks, flowers, leaves and pine cones.

The embellishments are a take on the leather hair wraps. They are made with Faux Leather card stock, leather string, beads and feathers that from my parrot Spike (he is molting right now lol).

The background is on a canvas board. I used a leafy stencil with texture paste and colored with the gelatos.

I created a Tepee for her and her cub. The tepee was really pretty easy to create, using the Spellbinders Nested Lacey Pennants, Vellum paper, Copics and Ribbon.
