I HEART YOU , CHALLENGE .
and what else could be right for this months, other than having your heart with you ,-also when creating !!
My sample therefore had to be made on one of the wonderful heart shaped
white greyboards, honoring beautiful friendship, and the friends, whom
always are there for me. Thank you dear`s .
I first went over it with thinned gesso, and after dry, the so beautiful stencil was used with
Texture past in left side . on right side I adhered old lace scraps, and when all had dried,
I mixed white and black paint, to a grey, which was first brushed over the lace ,
and after thinned with lots of water to get a very light tone, and then bruched
over the stenciled ,side.
The wonderful big button from Texture Collections stamp set 3, was stamped
onto a scrap of old textile, which also, had got a coat, of the grey, first.
I used Archival Ink to stamp with . They were adhered to right side , of the heart.
Then one of the hearts from a greyboard bits and pieces sheet
was painted too, and after ,I again used the stencil, to create interest, and also
draw around the perimeter to define the shape..
I found two lovely friends from T.Holz :Ancestors , adhered them , to the middle of the heart,
and gave them the heart of friendship ,into their hands . The left side girl got a black "shadow" to define them, better.
For the left side of the heart I used a pompom yarn ,from my stash,
also painted , with light grey, and a piece of crocheted old lace, in the peak
as seen below .
A lovely piece of sari silk, from my stash was inserted in the holes, I had made
using my Crop A Dille .
NOW remember if you wan t to play, too-
the winner of this challenge will receive a £30 voucher to spend in the online shop and the Top 3 will receive a stencil/s of their choice from our own That's Crafty! brand.
Sounds fantastic, dosen`t it !!!!!!
