Here are some close ups....



For the paper layers I did some ripping, distressed the edges & hand stitching..
 
 
I painted the ripped edges with oyster-H20...


I primed all of the chipboard with clear gesso, then painted some of the pieces with clear crackle, once the crackle dried I painted the pieces with oyster silk, & rubbed in brown chalk...

 
I also did some stencil work....


For the frame I used some chipboard waste pieces & glued the crazy stitching onto it. For the flower clusters I used Prima Roses, Rosette Trim, Little Birdie mini roses, Pearls & Prills...
 


I strung beads onto wire to dangle off of the dream catcher & Indian Arrow...I also glued on some crystals....


I also glued cheesecloth under the dream catcher, applied liquid pearls & made another flower cluster... Here are a few more close ups...
