This is for Jean's challenge to make a Venetian style mask. I have always been fascinated with Venice and their famous masks for Carnivale. Halloween is always a favorite of mine too, kinda goes hand in hand I guess! This was a fantastic challenge, I just love how mine came out! I am soooo hanging it in my bedroom (I used the colors as inspiration!) Thanks Jean! I'm off to have a martini in your honor...Hail to the Martini Queenie!

Love the mask and makes me even more excited about my trip to Venice and Greece. Can't wait to shop for a Venice Mask. Thanks for sharing as it is quite beautiful.

Absolutely gorgeous. I love Venice and its Carnivale too - picked up a book on it when I was there years ago. You certainly have captured the flavour of the Carnivale in this wonderful mask.
Did you create the shape of the mask yourself or use a pattern/template?
