Hello Sweeties,
Today I'm up on Finnabair blog with a Steampunk wreath for Christmas.
I primed the Ornate Frame, the Steampunk Sparrow, and the Steampunk Wreath with White Heavy Gesso. For the gears, I used Black Heavy Gesso.
I coated the Sparrow with Gilding glue and left it to completely dry before covering it with Gold Metallic Flakes. Then, I added some green highlights with Malachite Green from the Limited Edition Precious Set and Avocado liquid acrylic paints.
I used the Rust Effect Pastes to alter all the gears: chipboard as well as resin without forgetting the ones from the sparrow. When they were dry, I added some Vintage Gold wax to highlight the details and the texture.
I painted the Ornate Frame with Powder Pink from the Limited Edition Sentimental Set. Then I added some shadows with Burnt Sienna and Ink Black, and I finished with Vintage Gold wax to add some light.
I painted the flowers of chipboard wreath with Powder Pink and the leaves with Malachite Green.
I've die-cut some greenery on watercolor paper. I painted them with Malachite, Avocado, and Rose Powder acrylic paint. I added a few flowers as well.
