You can not imagine how much fun I had with this project.
Starting with my pages I haven't got any idea of what I wanted to do.
I only knew I'd use a tissue paper fot texture and Purple Paint.
The rest was appearing in my mind while I was working.
This is the most frequent way of working for me.
I rarely have a plan or a vision of the final look.
This is my purple/pink/gold garden and here below you can find pictures
of each stage of my creation, hoping you get inspired to try this.
1. Cover the pages with thin layer of gel medium, crumble a tissue paper
and adhere it covering all the surface.
2. Paint it all with Crushed Grape Dyslusions Paint.
3. Give a metallic touch to the edges with Metallique Dark Velvet Paint.
4. Showcase the texture by touching with Opal Magic Violet Gold Paint.
5. Stamp some circles with Dylusions Black Marble Paint.
6. Fill the insides of the circles with Dylusions White Linen Paint.
7. Make circles with a twine and glued them where
the stamped circles were with gel medium.
8. Color the insides with Dylusions Bubble Gum Paint.
Mix gel medium, violet gold paint with Micro Beads
and place into the circles.
9. Trim your kitchen sticks for the lenghts needed
as a stems to your flowers and paint them into black
covering with violet-gold paint.
Adhere them with gel medium to the background.
10. Die-cut Penny Black Lively die from a cardboard
and color them with Dylusions Fresh Lime Spray.
11. Highlight the edges of the leaves with Metallique Black Berry Paint.
