Hello Sweeties,
Today I’m up on  Lindy’s Gang blog with a new video tutorial. I chose a photo from the movie “Edward Scissorhands”. I must admit I have never watched this movie, but I find this photo very inspiring for a Spring project.

I think it happens to all of us to make a project that we didn’t like. I have this panel with a background I really didn’t like, so instead of throwing it away, I just covered it with white gesso, et voilà! my panel was ready for another project.

Basic process:

  1. Take your old background and cover it with one or two coats of white gesso;
  2. Color the background with your favorite colors if your photo is black & white; I choose to work with Pirate’s Plunder Gold, Fairy Garden Green, and My Mojito Green;
  3. Use a baby wipe to blend the colors together;Recycling an old background by Pascale B.
  4. Emboss a frame with Chip Off the Old Black EP. While the embossing powder was still hot, sprinkle some Gimme Five Gold EP.Recycling an old background by Pascale B.
  5. Prime some resin leaves with clear gesso;
  6. Color them with My Mojito Green and Sparkling Sunset Magicals;Recycling an old background by Pascale B.
  7. Everything is ready to be assembled. Glue all the elements with 3D gel;
  8. Add a few flowers to your composition;

  9. To finish, add some glitters.
As you can see, this panel was really easy to make and I was able to salvage my messed-up background.
