~* Wolf Altered Puzzle Pieces *~

In PuzzleMadness Candy is hosting a Wolf themed altered puzzle project. I LOVE wolves.... they are such spiritual and free creatures....

The wolf walks beside us to remind us of the lessons we're here to learn. Over protection can mean one needs to learn how to trust others. Territorial issues are lessons of letting go. But the positives are there too. The wolf tries to show us our innate ability to "sense" to "see" spiritual undercurrents and lessons. To understand that we're not all alone and we have many "family" members to rely on.

Perhaps this information above means something to me because I do not 'rely' on very many people in my life, as they always seem to turn their backs. But those that I do rely on are there for me through the worst of times... perhaps thats why I love the wolf so much. Irregardless I wanted to participate in this project because of my liking + fondness to this animal... so below are my pieces that I created in this project.

My Apologies for the blur in the image. I was forced to take a photo of this piece because of the 3-d jewels I used.
I took a different approach with this piece. I used a blue-ish/silver sparkling paper as the base of the piece and then took giant glittered snowflakes and attached them on top of the paper in a random form... then I added the wolf image and the blue jewels. Please ignore the colors and designs around the piece as these are from other pieces in the puzzle.

This piece is actually 2 pieces attached together.... I actually painted the pieces with black metallic paint and then attached the wolf image. Then around the image I used blue and silver stars and a silver sun jewel with a blue moon jewel. The vellum that is on the top is a quote of sorts that says 'Words Like Winter' I thought it was a creative slogan for a wolf image.

And finally this is the final piece that I created. I think I have taken a liking to this piece compared to all of the rest... Im not sure why, maybe its the wolf couple. I used a brown, tan and blue designed paper as the base and then attached the couples image. I then took a sticker of a brown tinted moth/butterfly and cut it out I attached the center of the butterfly but not the wings and bent them up a little to look like it was more realistic. I then added the gold and sienna tinted glitter butterflies underneath for a flying effect of sorts... then added the same colored leaf glitters to the top but hid the top part of the leaves under the wolf image so that the leaves actually turn into Feathers :)
