Deep Sea Diver Gear

Deep Sea Diver Gear

With Crafting On A Budget (Mai Larsen)

I Got the Stamperia Sea world paper from Crafting on a budget

I started by Cutting all my paper elements and gluing them down to Stamperia stone Paper. Stone paper is made of stone and can not be ripped or torn. But it cuts beautifully with scissors. Stone paper is perfect for gluing paper to for sturdy layers in mixed media. then giving them a protected layer of decoupage glue. 

Here I cover the whole gear with Stamperia Sea world rice paper. and decoupage glue will work just fine.

This Mould is also from the Sea world Collection, its nice and thin! I took prima modeling material and pressed little sections, while still soft I glued them down to my gear. I also used modeling paste through a stameria stencil to add more texture to the backround

Close up of that gorgeous stencil!

You can see here I start layered my paper elements along with some finnabair gears made from her mould.

 I added the seaworld wood shaped UNDERWATER No 297! love the look of that! When everything is all dry I added Aniquing cream then wiped it off gently to give a vintage look.

 I'll link everything I used below  Thanks for looking!!
