Polar Bear and Pajama Party has been too much fun! Our creative Team Member is running a white on white challenge—now how can anyone pass that up!
So here is my “Love” card for the forum inspiration
Lots of spray painting of flowers from their original color to white …
The butterfly was red once upon a time ..
I covered with gesso and used my heat gun … ( it gave it a yellow burnt tone ) then I used a simple white acrylic paint and my heat gun … which gave it tiny bubbles .. Final layer was puffy paint ( liquid pearls will work too ) and the heat gun and an explosion of bubbles .. I kept heat on it till I was happy with the amount bubbles.
The technique for the alphas ….
The original chipboard alphas were perfect size, so wrong in color …
1. I peeled off the first layer of the chipboard so that the pattern was gone
2. Painted them with gesso and let them dry
3. Dabbed a heavy layer of puffy paint - let it dry completely .
4. Painted them with crackle paint—Picket Fence and let it dry
5. The final layer crackle accents—which add a shine and a little more crackle ..
Thanks for stopping by !
