This week we have lots to inspire you with
for your Halloween makes and we start
with a project from
Dawn Heald:
I grunged up the Tando Creative Cobweb,
by painting on a layer each of
Crackle Paste,
white Snowflake paint and Starlights Pearl paint.
Allow each layer dry before adding the next.
Finally I dabbed on Gunmetal Stickles.
I made a background board for the Web to go on.
I did this by cutting a square of thick cardboard recycling a delivery box.
Next I glued on layers of torn book pages.
When dried I sanded the edges,
then added stencil patterns with Grunge Paste.
I put Grunge Paste around the edges too.
When dry I painted a thin layer of
Starlights Orange Oxidised and Antique Pink paints
all over the board, allowing the book page printing to
show through in places.
Then I rubbed Alchemy Wax Lavender over the Grunge Paste.
To go with the Web, I made a spider with hat from Air Dry Clay.
I painted the spider with Black Gesso and his boots and hat with Liquid Pearls.
Also dabbed some Liquid Pearls and Gunmetal Stickles to the Spider
Embellishments.
To finish I glued the Web, Spider and Embellishments
to the background board and added some
Stickles Glitter Glue lines for pieces of Web
and some black gems.
Products used
Thank you Dawn, I love that cheeky spider.
This would be a fun project to make with the
children
See you all tomorrow
