Dress up set 

Vintage dress form

wing it chipboard wings

 

I start off painting the whole base white with gesso, I cut off the feet and glued them through my resin gears

Next I'm taking this fantastic vintage paper and decoupaging it to stone paper. this will be cut down to make the dress! 

As you see, I have added paper to the wings and painted them green.

Along with painting the dress form green as well!

now to the fun stuff!!! I took Decoart Antiquing cream covered everything. let that dry a minute and wipe the access off with a babywipe.

Now to just assemble!

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!
