I painted the chipboard using basic acrylic paint, and then used mica powder and glimmer mist to add a subtle sheen and variation in base color.
The flowers were made over the course of a year as I tested new ways to mangle paper. There are various links to flower tutorials for similar projects listed at the right. A few vintage finds were added for fun. This was a “use what you have” type project inspired by a sample I saw at CKU from Crafty Secrets.
- Vintage images from Crafty Secrets
- Chipboard pages from Michaels in the dollar section
- Rosettes hand made by me
- Calendar designed by me
- Ranger Distress inks
- Glimmer Mist (on everything!)
- Fabri-Tac adhesive. Zip dry would also work perfectly on this type of project.
