ATC Box for Andy Skinner DT

Hi everyone Dee here with this lovely ATC box from Creative Expressions I decorated it using Andy Skinners new pastes and paints from Creative Expressions. I really enjoyed this project as it developed itself like most of my pieces, I was really happy with the results.

Firstly I glued together the ATC Box from Creative Expressions.  I used Andy's stencil cogged up by Creative Expressions I put Andy's structure paste through it onto the ATC box. I also used strata paste and a smigin of lava paste. A quick coat of Gesso.

I heat set everything with my heat gun watched the lava paste expand. I then started with my washes. of colours. Raw umber dry, `Paynes Grey, Cobalt teal dry, very watery wash of Andy's new ocean matt paint. 

I went back in with quinacridone gold in areas as it then looks like rust. a sprinkle of cold patina and heat set to add to the weathered look see pic below.

The above pic also shows the lava paste coloured with quinacridone gold.

I added little gems that i had coloured with Andy's Prussian blue pigment paint. 

You can just see the ATC that I did poking out of the box.

Here is a close up showing the Cosmic Shimmer lustre Polish Glistening gold was used to accentuate the structure. 

A close up off the embossing enamel.

ATC was decorated in the same way as the box.

I hope you like my box as much as i enjoyed making it for you.

Cheers Dee x

Isolation Redrum

Hi everyone just a quick note 2020 hasn't been any better than 2019 but this time the whole country is involved. My mum died last week and unfortunately I am one of the venerable so I am unable to go to her funeral as I am currently in isolation for the next 12 weeks. I hope all you lovely peeps are well and like me taking to your craft rooms and crafting like crazy.

So I ordered these lovely stamps made by# kazercraft, I love them they match my mood brilliantly so to tone it down I used 3 colours from the # Decoart range and the tinting base to paint these pages. Using stamps from the Artistic Stamper I decorated and stamped my way over the 2 pages. Any of you fans of the shinning well i named this after that as i have been indoors for a while now as my husband wouldn't let me out before the NHS told me to stay in. Going a bit stir crazy!!!

Here follows some close ups but love this way of painting its so soothing and relaxing compared to my normal style.

I hope you enjoyed the post minus the neg vibe. Keep safe and thanks for popping by,

Cheers Dee x
