Snowflakes

Snowflakes

Hallo everyone!

Today we have the last in our current theme

It has been a wonderful week for Snowflakes

and here is Karen Gist with her fabulous project

using the Tando Artroom 

Glue the pieces of the Artroom 

together but paint the background in 

Fresco Baltic Blue 

and, when dry, splash with

white acrylic before you add the

front section

Paint the rest of the Artroom in

Fresco Blue Oyster.

When dry, using a flourish stencil 

add some sparkle medium to the

sides, front and top.

Set aside to dry

Cover all the stars with a layer of gesso and

the cover them with Crystal Stickles.

Leave to dry

The little stars are from the centre of the

snowflakes and can be used too.

 Assemble the house, leaving the roof for a moment. 

Paint the house in Fresco antarctic and when dry 

rub around the edges lightly with Versamagic Sahara Sand. 

Put the roof through an embossing folder to give it some texture. 

Paint it using Fresco Stone and when dry rub

 a little of the Sahara Sand over the ridges. 

Glue to the house. 

Add doors and windows

Decide where your house will sit and draw a line around it on the base. 

Spread Sparkle Medium over the base but 

leave the area where the house will stand. 

Add texture by 'flicking' the medium with a pallette knife as it dries.

Take out the card from the Tando packaging

and paint sections with Blue Oyster and sand.

Stamp and cut out a selection of trees.

Attach to the Artroom using silicone glue

so that they stand out a bit.

Add a little Tando heart painted with

Blue Oyster to the roof of the house and add

some sparkle medium. 

Glue the house in place adding a

little tree

Add the snowflakes to the top of the

Artroom as shown.

I thought afterwards that I could have added

little battery powered lights to this piece.

Too late for me but not for you.....
