Hi everyone
Happy crafting Tuesday.
Don't you just love this month's mood board.
I do so so here's a sneak of what I created.
I started by gluing down some lengths of hessian twine and some handles cut off shopping bags. I initially used some gel medium which should have been fine but it had turned a bit thick so I resorted to Helmar 450 quick dry adhesive which worked well.
I glued on some chipboard pieces and then the whole page a couple of thin coats of white gesso just dry brushed on.
I sprinkled on some Color Burst powder (Olive Green) and then gave it a spritz with water.
I struggled to find a photo placement spot that I was happy with as I felt it was floating and unconnected with anything so I went back and added more twine as a base for the photo.
I added some Nuvo Crackle Mouse (Wrought Iron) through a stencil and some Pearlex (Antique gold) mixed with some impasto through another stencil to give some texture to the top of my chipboard pieces. I added a key hole from my stash that I had made with paper clay and a Re-Design Prima Grandeur Keyholes mould. I had painted it a terracotta colour so to tie it in a gave it a coat of Art Alchemy Opal Magic Wax (Green Brocade) and some Liquid Pearl drops (Avocado) to finish it.
Happy creating!
cheers
Tracey
