A little reminder.... Dawn Heald

Helloooo,

So I thought the DT should have a
week off! Actually, it's my fault, I cannot
tell a lie,
I didn't give them enough time to
get a project ready for you this week!
So, I've popped back in time to 
find some projects to remind you
what you can do with these
brilliant products.....

I've picked this project by Dawn
as it would make a lovely gift.
This was her project for Diwali.....

Today Dawn is with us to show you her 
project.

Dawn says......

 Hi there crafters, this week for our topic

 on Diwali I have altered a candle holder.

 I also looked into the reason for Diwali 

and learnt a lot, a love story too. I got

 the best lesson from my nine year old

 son, Samuel who knew the story inside out.

 So being know as the festival of light, I made this...

I used the Irresistible Texture Sprays as a paint

 and this worked well. It did however after 

drying, crack and push the stamped lines. 

I liked this look as it gave it a grunge feel

 to it, but you could easily go over the lines

 with a pen or paint and brush. I'm enjoying

 these sprays and look forward to more experiments.

To make this project - 

Give the glass a good clean and dry. Then

 stamp your images using Jet black Stazon 

ink. I laid my stamp flat on the surface, 

inked up and then rolled the

 glass over the stamp.

Next paint your images using a brush and

 Irresistible Texture Sprays. Don't forget

 you can mix colours together. Leave to dry.

Add some black paint dots using handle 

end of paint brush.

 Use glossy accents 

and attach multi colour gems to finish.

Wow, that is beautiful Dawn,

thank you, bet it looks lovely when

it is lit!
