Do you believe in fairies?

 I started with a random book,cut layers of wholes then ripped each whole even more.

i then separated and glued each and every page to each other in the thickness and look that I wanted

I used gel medium added green moss in all the nooks and crannies!

then gave it a good coat of clear gesso.

I used an instant coffee mixture to add that old book look to the pages

Added my flowers,clipboards,bobbles,sequins,glitter,prills and art stones.

Gave it some splashes with green and purple color wash sprays some gesso dry brushing and some sentiments! xoxo

Altered Wooden Heart Plaque

Hello Lovely People!!!! Today I'm showing you this beautiful altered wooden heart plaque!

                                                          First I gave it a light sanding.

Then a nice coat of white Gesso

Once the gesso is good and dry I added Texture Paste White Crackle through a Crafters Workshop Stencil (Harlequin)

Here I'm just figuring out my composition.

I chose some chipboard from scrapiniec  and resin from some of my silicone molds.

These are the nuance powders I used  and a home made yellow spray.

I sprayed yellow and used a water bottle to tone the color down dabbing with a baby wipe, I then sprinkled on my nuance powders in Nutmeg and Blue Lagune.

Using the same technique, Spraying with water and dabbing off some. You can really see the colors seep down into the crackle paste. Love this effect!

Close up of that crackle!

Using gel medium I attached all my embellishments.

So here is where It went down hill! I LOVE finnabairs waxes! So I decided to highlight the resin with them, but then I did the edge of the heart to. I just didnt like this look at all! I was wanting light and airy. So I went back over that with white Gesso. easy peasy fix!

taking acrylic paint,just the cheap stuff! I watered it down and splashed yellow blue and gold.I then printed out my sentiment covered it with matte gel medium edged it with the same gold wax and fastened that on for the finished look!

I get most of my art supplies From a great shop with a fabulous owner! I'm adding links below for items I used If you want to try out any of these techniques yourself! thanks so much for stopping by
