Embossed canvas and grungy princess

Hello angels! Here is my second post for July and I’ll also introduce my first project that goes hand in hand with the resist technique. I embossed the canvas banner shapes from Canvas Corp and than I applied the Chandelier Glimmer Glam on a ruller and applied it only on the embossed parts. Once dried I sprayed the canvas with the Glimmer mists: Black Magic, Afraid of the dark and Pink Simply Sheer Plain Jane . After dried I covered everything also with a light mist of Chalk Chalkboard. I completed the banner with parts of the 7 Gypsies envelopes Postale and papers . But let the photos talk…

 

Do you want to make something for a teenage princess? Well, you obviously can not make a candy crown 😉 . Here is an appropriate alternative for a grungy princess.

I appliead diverse Glimmer glazes on a cardboard crown: Pewter, Java, Mercury Glass, Icicle. The procedure is to dry the surface between  every application of the glaze and in the end you get a great marble effect. For this project I also used Chalkboard Charcoal to cover the tag and some pieces of 7 Gypsies Decorative Wall Hardware. This metal pieces are great for an alternative use!

 

So was inspired my July. I love the resist projects and the endless possibilities of mixing the different paints.  I’ll be back next month and I already see august will be something special! Have a great misty summer!!!
