I found this Wooden crown at my local store, of course you can use anything you want to jazz up!
First thing I do is cover the entire thing with White gesso. I just want to make sure whatever is left showing is white.
I used Dina Wakely Collage paper and put it down with some simple gel medium. I did both sides,then cut the leftover bits off. ( i glues those leftover bits in my art journal for future use).
Can you see the shine on this Icing paste made by Finnabair? Its gorgeous!
I used a Stamperia stencil and put on a thin layer of the paste.
After that dried I added a resin I made from a stamperia mould. It was a heart with gears. I snapped it in half and used that as my first layer of embellishments. I glue everything down with gel medium!
I used some flowers, art stones and metals, After my layers are on and dry I give the whole thing a layer of Clear Gesso, I want my flowers to stay red.
Adding color is always my Favorite part! just remember it always looks worse before the end results.
I started with Black and added it to all my art stones and in between the flower petals, That will help add some depth and dimension. I dry each color in between layers. Just some small amounts of red and spritz with water to get it all flowing.
To finish it off, I took an old paint brush and white gesso, I did the dry brush metho, small amounts of gesso on your brush and dabbing most off, you lightly go over all your embellishments. I also took more icing paste and rubbed it on with my finger. and some white splashes with watered down gesso. I added a little word with a Stampotique stamp and Edge the whole Thing with Archival Ink.We are gonna call her done!
