Steampunk Caddy for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a caddy. Have you seen all the new MDF available?

Before assembling the Caddy, I primed it with white gesso and covered all the pieces with tissue paper. When done, I added a design with the Postcard stencil and a gold paste.



I selected different gears that I primed with black gesso. I primed also some Small Tea Leaves and Rose Leaves. I colored the leaves with bronze, gold, and silver waxes.


I created four clusters with the gears and cogs: one on each side of the caddy. When happy with the composition, I covered all the elements with rust paste. Next, I added the metallic flowers and the leaves.


To finish, I added some glitter.

Listen to your heart - Mixed media canvas for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed-media canvas. This one is larger than the ones I used usually: this one is 5x45 cm


I primed the canvas with white gesso. Next, I added a design to the upper part of the canvas with a stencil and Emerald Jewel paste. I covered the lower part with paper paste and to the edge of the upper part. When dry, I paint the upper part with different green liquid acrylic paints and the bottom part with umber paint to match the background of the photo. Next, I added some gold metallic flakes to the lower flakes. Then, I added clear crackle paste to the edge. I added more colors when the crackle paste was dried.


I primed the chipboards with white gesso. I painted the Mandala with different shades of coral paint to match the color of the wall of the photo. 


I painted all the leaves with different shades of green.


I covered the Wrought Iron Fence Border and the Mini Morrocan Lamps with gold metallic flakes, and then I added some copper wax.


I added flowers in mango and pistachio to remind the colors of the dress.


To finish, I added some glitter.

Fly Away - Mixed media panel for Finnabair BA

Hello Sweeties,

Today I have a mixed media panel with my beloved Finnabair products that I created a while ago but  I haven't shared with you yet. 

The main elements of the composition are the moth and the fork used to extend its body.


First, I primed the MDF support with white gesso. I added a few rub-on from the Photo Passion set. When done, I added a design with white crackle paste and the Numbers stencil, then clear crackle paste randomly.


While the background was drying, I covered the moth with Steampunk metallic flakes. I build my composition with the help of heavy body gesso. The fork will be an extension of the moth body, the dents kind of extra antennas. I try to bend them, but I only manage to bend the two side tines.


When everything was in place and didn’t move, I sprinkled the composition with burgundy and dark rose mica powders from the Vintage Roses set. I ‘ve spray them with dilute liquid color fluid medium to make the mica permanent. I dried everything before using different colors of liquid acrylic paints to add more colors to the composition.


When happy with the result, I used waxes in Rose Gold, Vintage Gold, and Old Silver to highlight the details of the moth.


To finish, I added some Golden Dragon Effect paste and silver glitter.


I hope you will enjoy the video:

Angel Heart - Mixed media panel for Dusty Attic

Hello Sweeties,

Today, I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel for Dusty Attic.


To begin, I primed the canvas board with white gesso. Next, I added two designs with the Circle Dots and Starry Night stencils, and paper paste. I make sure that the paste was completely dry before I covered everything with both white and clear crackle pastes. I didn't try to obtain an even surface as it wasn't what I was looking for, but I make sure that the designs were still visible under the crackle pastes. 


I sprayed the edges of Wings #1 with water to allow the layers of the chipboard to separate to give more dimension to the wings. When done, I primed all the chipboards I'd selected with white gesso. I was careful to keep all the layers of the wings separate when I painted and dried them. 


I used mica powders mixed with a liquid fluid medium and liquid acrylic to paint the chipboards. Then I added some silver wax on top. 


My background was dry, I started to paint it with mica powders mixed with the liquid fluid medium too. Next, I stamped randomly the background and dry brushed some parts with white gesso to remind the background of the photo.


I assembled the composition to my desire and added a touch of white pearl wax to add some light. I kept some part of the middle of the Decorative Frame #4 in order to glue it easily under the photo. 


I decided to add a little cluster on the left side to remind the main cluster.
To finish, I added some glitter.

Ever Dreamer - Layout for 49 and Market DT

Hello Sweeties, It has been a while since I've posted a project for 49 and Market. But here I am with a layout created with the gorgeous Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden collection.

For my background, I've chosen the Zen paper. To match the color of my photo, I added some color to the background primed with clear gesso to prevent the paint from soaking the paper. When dry, I added some Color Wash rub-ons.

I selected some pieces from the Cluster Kit, the Ephemera bits, and the Clipboard Set packs to make my composition. I added in between all the selected elements a piece of cardboard to add some dimension to my project.

When I was happy with my composition, I selected some Wildflowers Laser Cut to add between the cluster elements. and a couple of Chipboard Words for the title. Then I added a few more rub-ons.

To finish the layout, I added some splatters.
Here is the video recorded while I make this layout:


49 and Market products:
  • Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden - 12x12 Paper Collection

Hold on ... - Miced media panel for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel.


I've selected a piece of paper that I tore in two parts, but before gluing them on the panel, I added a design with clear crackle paste and the Lace stencil. I let the paste dry naturally. 


I primed all the chipboard with white gesso before adding any paint. I painted the Small Scroll #2 in Ultramarine and Purple paints, then added Aged Brass wax to remind the color of the peacock's wings.


For the Foliage #23, I used the Umber color. The Foliage #27 and Foliage #7 were painted with Emerald and Ochre. Finally, I painted the Forest fern with Ochre and Lime Green to remind the color of the peacock's head and upper wings. 


In the meantime, the crackles of the paste have appeared, it's time to finish the background. First, I glued my torn papers and inked the edges to give them a distress look. When done, I painted the design with green and brown liquid acrylic paints


I painted the Decorative Frame #2 with Umber, then I added White Gold wax.
When happy with the result, I glued all the elements of the composition with a 3D gel. 


To finish, I added some effect paste, mica, and glitter.

Dream Big - Mixed media canvas for Dusty Attic

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with my second project for this month: a mixed media canvas.


I covered the canvas with paper paste. I didn't bother to have an even layer. When the paste was completely dry, I painted it with liquid acrylic paints that I made run with water. The top was painted with Ink Black. For the bottom part, I used different shades of blue liquid acrylic paints until I obtain the same blue color as the photo. When the paints were still wet, I added White Titanium to add more depth and Prussian Blue.


I primed all the chipboards with black gesso. I covered the Mandala #1 and the Word Disc #1 with Tiger Eyes Jewel paste to remind the color of the hair of the girl. I just added some gold with Vintage Gold wax.


For the Spider Chrysanthemum, I just added Mystic Turquoise wax to add a touch of blue to the upper part of the canvas. I used the Firebird wax for the Fern Fronds. 


I painted the Leaves #5 with Unicorn Hair Sparks and rub them with Vintage Gold wax. 


I decide to turn the title to black to add more contrast with the Ink Well paint and rubbed it gently with White Gold wax.


To finish the composition, I added some glitter, sequin, and microbeads

Bright and colorful - Mixed media panel for 49 and Market DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on 49 and blog with a new mixed media panel. 


I added a design with a stencil with black gesso. When it was dry, I painted the background with liquid acrylic paints to match the photo's colors. I removed unwanted splatters and brush marks with white impasto.


Next, I added on the edges of the area I'd painted rub-ons. I mainly chose splatters, text, and palettes in the same colors as the paints from the "6x8 Spectrum Gardenia Extra Rub-On Transfers" and "Essential Text blend Rub-On Transfers" in Salsa, Eggplant, and Fern colors.


When happy with the result, I selected some "Spectrum Gardenia Filmstrip" to add under the photo. I disposed them to kind of frame the photo.


Next, I selected some tickets and stamps from the Spectrum Gardenia "General" and "Essential" Laser Cut Elements in various colors and designs. I arranged them at opposite corners.


In the same corners, I added Kismet Wildflowers along with Spectrum Gardenia "Floral" and "Leaves" Laser Cut Elements. I made another cluster with the same elements on the opposite side of the main composition


To finish, I added different colors of glitter to match the overall tones.
