Butterflies and Gems


Hi everyone I hope you are all good and that the new year finds you in good health!
I have loved this stamp but have never been able to do it justice but I 
think this wooden wall plaque,


might just do it justice.


I started of with putting texture paste through a memory stencil and allowing to 
dry naturally, then I covered the entire plaque with gesso.


Next I painted the entire plaque black. 


Once dry I highlighted it with Treasure gold in spanish topaz and white fire.


I triple embossed gold embossing powder on black card 
I then pressed the butterfly stamp into the molten
powder.


Once it had set I removed the stamp I had a rummage in my gem 
box and found the centre piece for my butterfly.


I took my alcohol inks in stream and denim and applied them 
to the butterflies wings.


I dyed some lint in steam Adirondack colour wash.


Some sequins from my stash and some gems to strewn across the 
stream lint.


A small piece of friendly plastic that I had from a previous project 
to finish off at the bottom. I really hope you like my plaque as 
always feel free to let me know what you think.

Cheers Dee x
