This is
another of the shrine samples I made for the Stitches show.
Supplies
Extras: Mop-up and under paper, cotton thread, buttons
Instructions
I stained and stamped the shrine prior
to assembling
Apply
Gesso to frame. Once dry, add random
areas of Grunge Paste. When dry, apply
Infusions, misting generously with water. Also stain white/greyboard tag and white cardstock with Infusions. With any excess Infusions, stain sari
ribbon. Leave to air dry.
Once
dry, repeatedly stamp Scribbled Text Elements stamp onto shrine. Stamp Quote onto stained cardstock, cutting
into word tiles. Before adhering Quote
to the tag, stamp stars onto tag. Scribble borders around the stamped word tiles. Attach tag to piece of stained sari
ribbon. As you assemble the shrine, trap
the ends of the sari ribbon behind the frame of the shrine, allowing the tag to
suspend.
Apply
Crackle Paste to mdf heart. Once dry,
apply Infusions and again, leave to dry (if you prefer to speed up the drying
process, use a heat tool).
Onto
mop up or under paper, stamp the moth. Layer prepared heart to centre. Onto scrap piece of stained cardstock, ink up the word Art, contained
within one of the Inspirational Quote stamps. Adhere to centre of heart. Adhere
this to top of shrine.
Final
touches:- onto media tape, stamp sentiment by inking up “creating” from Quote used
on tag and for the word “you”, carefully, only apply ink to this section of the
“yourself” word in the same quote. Embellish shrine with cotton thread sewn
onto buttons.
The Art
Shrines come in a variety of styles and sizes.
Until
next week,
Wishes
Lynne

ReplyDeleteOh I wish I could see this in real, to see the texture created with the grunge paste and all the details, like the crackled heart with Infusions, and the threads hanging from the buttons, so wonderful all, dear Lynne. It is a gorgeous creation !!xx
