October guest designer and Crafty Individuals

Hello,
A post on Sunday? yup... as we have the lovely Zuzu joining us this month, she's got the Sunday's spot :)
And Zuzu has a goooooooorgeous project  to share with you today...
Here's how she made it...

The wooden arch was sprayed with the Cosmic Shimmer mist. 

The image was glued into place then texture paste was applied on the edges.

The texture was coloured with Alcohol InkS then embossing crystals applied.  

Using glossy accents in the grooves of the texture I created little puddles and sprinkled beads into them. 

I glued on the metal embellishments and then allowed the piece to dry.

Once dry, I used Rub n Buff  to highlight raised areas of the texture paste and the edges of the arch. 

I put dots of stickles glitter glue in random areas and also used the stickles to accent the dragonfly. 

Finally I used chalk inks to colour the calendar page before sticking it in to place. 

Materials:
