2. I applied the Dazzle texture paste- Grass randomly and as paste was still wet I sprinkled fine gold glitter .
3. Once this was dry I did dry brushing using brown acrylic paint.
4. Stamped the flower and the leaf  image from the You Are Amazing stamp set to make my elements.
5. Coloured my stamped images with Bronze and Peacock Feathers Shimmer paints and then fussy cut them.
6. Final step was to stick all my flowers,resin embelishments, fussy cut flowers and leaves and some Flirty Espresso shaker elements.

STAMP SET- INSPIRE

SHIMMER PASTE- PUMPKIN

 

SHIMMER SPRAY- DANCING PEACOCK

other than these i have also used metal charms, some of my handmade art stones, thread and micro beads.

So here is my MIXED MEDIA RECYCLED CARDBOARD ROLLS

 

 

 

A BRIEF TUTORIAL:

 

1. I took three small size cardboard roll and glue them together.
2. Next I added cotton cloth using PVA glue, To create more texture on the surface   I also added some thread.
3. After it dries completely, I glue down some jewelry pieces, and to put everything together I glue down some art stones and micro beads.
4. To prime the project I decided to use chalk paint instead of gesso… the shade I used here is called hazy cucumber. ( I just love the way chalk paint gives colored matt finish and at the same time primes the surface nicely and smoothly )
5. To give little bit of depth around the object I used shimmer spray “Dancing Peacock” from craftyscrappers.
6. Next for focal point I added chipboard cutout… here I used fairy and covered this cutout using Craftyscrappers shimmer paste “Sweet Pumpkin” and then glue down that chipboard cutout on to the project.
7. To finish the project I used sentiment from stamp set called “Inspire”.
8. I highlighted project with gesso using dry brush technique.
