Hay Peeps... So today i have a little picture art to share..
I picked up this fab ickle set of 3 frames {amoungst other things to alter} about a month ago and have been waiting for inspiration to strike.. which last night it did!
I decided i would fill each picture gap with black utee and then i stamped
3 of the fab little winged critters from the insects & butterflys plate into the utee while it was still warm.
Once the utee had gone cold I dusted some red mica powder paint to make the bugs really pop.
I coated the frames with a ivory coloured acrylic and just made a sort of crackle effect with the paint brush, one dry i rubber some white mica powder all over to give a nice shimmer.
You can see in this pic how that mica really pops in certain lights..
most if not all the supplies i used are available from The Artistic Stamper
This piece fits in with a multitude of challenges amazingly..
Sunday Stamper - 'WINGS of a dove'
Wednesday Stamper - Hip to be 'SQUARE'
Gingersnap Creations -#56 - 'Burgundy, Ivory & Black'
