Friendship




I put some colour on to the base of my canvas then covered it in Beeswax - I thne added some dressmakers pattern tissue. Next came the images - Thanks Sam - I put an image in the name plate and covered with glossy accents and when dry attached with brads. I put a layer of modpodge on the hinge and then inked it I heated it until the glue bubbled to creat texture. I than put another coat of beeswax all over. To finish it off I added the Tape - 7 gypsies and the Letters Tim Holtz Salvage stickers.

I'm quite pleased with the result
