Blue Moth - Tag for Finnabair BA

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Finnabair blog with a tag. I just have to play with all the new waxes and believe me, they are all amazing!

To start, I primed the tag (21 x11 cm) with white heavy gesso. Then, I covered it with Carte Postale Tissue Paper. I primed the tissue paper with clear gesso and added a design with the Secret Letter Stencil and Pearl Icing Paste.
When dry, I color the background with Burnt Sienna and Nude Acrylic paints.

Before gluing all the resin elements of the composition with 3D Matte Gel, I primed them with White Gesso as well as the Metal Blooms and the Woodland Leaves.

I painted the flowers and the moth’s body with Tiger Orange and the wings with Purple.

Then, the fun begins with the waxes. For the flowers, I used Coral and Red Flames, and for the leaves, Moss Green and Acid. I colored the frame with Black gold, I just love it! and as well as the gears.

For the moth, I used Celestial and Midnight for the body, then Sea Glass and Cobalt for the wings.
I used Honey to highlight all the details.

To finish, I added shadows with Ink Black, rust accent to the gears with Carmine and finally some glitter.

The Gnome's Garden - Tag for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a tag. 

I selected a medium size tag from the Tag Medley set. I've primed the tag with white gesso before adding some designs to the background. I used the River Stone stencil with the Graphite paste to add the first design like a small path. Then, I added the second design with the Flourish stencil and light modeling paste. When dry, I painted the background with black and brown for the path, and green for the forest background.
I primed all the chipboards I've selected with white gesso as well. Then, I painted them with different acrylic paints. 

The Gnome was painted with carmin, brown and black paint. I used brown and black paints to color the small Fairy Door #1 and black and white for the stone. 

For the Grass Cluster #1, I used green and purple. I added a touch of Unicorn paste to add some fun. 

I paint the head of the Toadstool Border with carmin and the grass with green paints.

When everything was to my taste, I glued everything together.
