For my new technique I worked with Essential Gelatos by Faber-Castell . I loved working with them and want all of the colors now ! LOL! They are very creamy and blend so well . I was able to layer colors on multiple surfaces .
I used the Steampunk Shape Set from Gina's Designs. The Gelatos cover the raw chip board so well . I base colored all the pcs. with black and then added the silver or gold. Then to finish it off I watered down the white and let it drip down the pcs. |
I recycled a ribbon spool for the base . I colored it with the Black and highlighted with the silver. |
The flowers are from Paper Mart. They started out white, I colored them with a Teal Copic marker. Then I started layering the Gilatoes on with a paint brush and water. |
I added a little bit of black tulle and I did a few flowers with the black, white and silver. |
I layered the wings to the dress form. |
Your next stop on the hop is Dawn If you get lost along the way, here is a list
