Old Treasures

                                                      Hello Happy Tuesday Everyone!
Today I created this underwater seahorse for the Old Treasures YouTube hop challenge!

 

I started off with this old seahorse that a friend sent to me. I think she said she picked it up at an estate sale,

I started giving it a coat of gesso then a second coat of Fiber paste (Little Birdie Crafts brand). Just the perfect amount of texture!

now here I take shells,embellishments and some (little birdie crafts) Flowers and get them glued down with gel medium and let it dry!

Next step, I cover all shells with White Gesso, Just a light coat. I kinda let some color still peak through.

Now its Time to Color!!!! I used sprays From Little Birdie Crafts and Lindy's Stamp Gang

(Time Travel Teal) (Merci Beaucoup Mint) (T-bird Turquoise) (Kissin Kenickie Coral) (Steampunk Sepia) From little Birdie (Paprika)..

I took white ribbon and sprayed them with cordinating colors of lindy's and tied them on the "neck" Used Finnibair sugar pebbles for eyes. and lastly a dry brush of white Gesso to tie it all together!

Thanks for Stopping by!!! XOXO Nicole Palos Cristarella!
