Question #1 to start today's post...
How do you turn this....
into... THIS !
Question #2: who's behind such a beauty? Isa's Art of course. Isa took a little break the last few weeks, and I'm so glad she is back with us this week as I love her projects. And I know you do too!
So I will let Isa tell you all about it...
STEP 1 : I cut the flower with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Tattered Floral die for the 3 big flowers and Sizzix Original Frame and Sculpted for the little one.
STEP 2 : I used Ranger's Alcohol inks to colour the flowers
STEP 3 : I stamped the Crafty Individuals flower swirls with Versamark ink and embossed it with Ranger Frosted embossing powder
I purposely used a acetate which is NOT heat resistant to have the flower curling up once heated.
STEP 4: to shape the flowers, place them on a bottle cap, heat to soften the acetate and press with an applicator handle. You can also shape the petals when they are still warm
STEP 5: you can highlight the petals with Rub 'n Buff
Add a button or other embellishment at the centre of the flower and decorate your jar
The jar lid was painted with acrylic paint
Stamps Crafty Individuals CI-235 and CI-
Ranger Frosted embossing powder
See you tomorrow
