3D Bloom


3D Bloom

Hi everyone!

Here is another project from
Angela Radford using the gorgeous
3D Bloom Color Sprays

Arm yourselves with a cup of
something that cheers you
put your feet up and
prepare to be entranced:

I decided to decorate a door hanger for
this project 



and started by using a
Carabelle Studio Mask - Industrial Mechanic -



to apply Grunge Paste. 



I rotated the stencil to apply the second
part so that the whole of the hanger was covered with
a matching pattern 


Once dry I sanded the edges
and then applied a thin coat of Gesso
to seal the card.  It s a good idea to do
the back too as it prevents the card from
warping when damp


I also wanted to make some dimensional embellishments
for the project and used a Mod Podge told - Industrial -
to fit with the mask


I also moulded some hands


Next I started to apply the embellishments
over the background


which I gradually built up until it was
ready to add the colour:


Always allow one colour to dry before
adding the next one to prevent them
from blending and going muddy


Once this stage was completely dry, 
I masked over parts of the hanger and
sprayed Worn Leather around the edge


The colours look a bit dull at this stage but 
don't worry, it will change soon.....

I took the tap from the Carabelle Studios - 
The Heart Has Its Reasons - stamp set


onto card and built up the surface with
embossing powder.  

Start with ink followed by a layer of fine powder
followed by layers of ink and UTEE until you
are happy with the hope and then stamp over
with Stazon ink in black


To complete the hanger I painted 
the back with black paint, 

rubbed over the front with various
colours of Treasure Gold, 

splattered white paint onto the surface,

 attached the tap with a glue gun

 and completed it  with Stickles 

and a small brass clock face from my stash


Happy Crafting Everyone xx



Thank you Angela, think you probably
deserve a rest with your feet up after that
beautiful hanger 


I enjoyed this project very much
and will be looking through my stash
this afternoon to see what I need to order..........

'till tomorrow, everyone

Mickie xx
