SEA LIFE Banner

This banner is a very collaborative piece. I created it to sell at the upcoming Vendor Fair at Artistic Affaire Les Sirenes. I was so inspired by the hand dyed silk ribbon created custom for me by my friend Becke at OceanAvenueSilks. Becke is a very talented silk painter and her scarves are beautiful.  I did however,  steal the idea from another etsy friend, jewelry artist Nan of Nansglam, check out these awesome necklaces Nan made with Becke's ribbons! Speaking of Nan, she is the "other" part of this collaborative piece, she taught me to wire wrap. BUT DON"T look too closely! I am a total beginner at wire wrapping and they are sooo not perfect! The wonderful images I used are from Graphic 45, my FAVORITE paper to create with. I just got my order in from their Boardwalk series and can't wait to get started making more goodies!
Thanks for looking- Denise
