Saturday Afternoon's play

Hi everyone had a play yesterday afternoon after coming back
from Ministry of Mixology and had a lovely time
using Kate's technique's.
 I was very lucky to do the running in her class on the Sunday
so listened very carefully and hoped that my mind would 
behave and remember how she created her
note book.
I must add that in itself is no mean feat as my family say I 
have a memory of a goldfish "How Rude" I alway's think
 while secretly agreeing with them.
 But luckily while waiting for my train home from Coventry 
I jotted down the steps.
 Kate gave me a page from the notebook that she had been demonstrating 
to the class for me to refer to how lucky am I.
So now I have A Any Skinner original and a Kate Crane original 
in my art room.
Well that's it for today hope you like my efforts I think it might
 be a bit busy but I like it anyway and loved the creative
 process it is very therapeutic.

An Altered Box For The SASPC Challenge

Hi everyone Dee here with my latest post for the SASPC monthly 
challenge. I have an altered wooden box from left over
Christmas Confectionary.
I started by gessoing the whole box followed by stencilling the 
words & pattern to the corner of the lid with with modelling
 medium next a coat of black acrylic paint.
Once dry I applied weather wood in area's this is done to increase 
the size of the crackle.
Next a coat of crackle paint all over the cover and put
aside to dry
Meanwhile all the Boozybear pieces I coated in powdered rust.
apart from the clock which I used Deco Art texture 
sand paste on.
I left the numbers untextured and coated it all in a coat of Paynes Grey
and Raw Umber Deco art media acrylics,
Once the crackle paint on the box had dried and crackled I applied
very watery washes of Prussian Blue Hue till I was happy 
with the colour.
A further wash of Andy Skinner's dirty wash was applied over the top.
I set the rusty clock on a background of a circle and painted it with
Tourquoise and covering in Deco art Liquid glass.
Inside the box I used about 5 different techniques one would
develop into the next then the next till I was happy 
with the result.
You can just make out the stamps that are used on the base of the
box prior to being painted with crackle paint.
Prussian blue hue was spritzed and run down the sides.
It was all finished off with treasure gold. I hope you have 
all been inspired to join us this month
the challenge is anything goes.

That's it for this month from Sandee & Amelie's
steam punk Challenges.
Cheers Dee x
