Hi my dear Lindy’s friends!
Julia Kissel here with a new steampunk style project! I found this image of a funny man’s half head pic with a rabbit on Pinterest and this became the inspiration for my project…)))
I have decided to create glasses for him using various metal embellishments and I created the base for the project using hoops with felt … and then began the fun.
Basic Process
- Take oval hoops (dimension 6*7.5in), put dense felt on them, reinforce base with a thick cardstock on the backside
- Randomly apply texture crackle paste to the felt and let it dry
- Paint the chipboard with black acrylic and add embossing using Silver Moon Turquoise EP
- Beautiful cracks should have appeared on the dried surface… Time to use Magical Shakers!
Use four colors Bratwurst Brown, Antique Bronze, Glittering Gold, Guten Tag Teal
- Alternately apply dry pigment powders and moisten the surface
- Gather your embellishments and glue them onto the composition and cover with Transparent Gel
- Then tint some places with acrylic paints and highlight the texture with waxes
- Apply white Gesso
- Create shadows using alcohol inks.
I made this step-by-step video for you! Watch and enjoy!
Some close-ups so you can see how amazing this looks!
